Saving Democracy: What’s Next for Wisconsin?

Wisconsin’s reputation as a beacon of democracy has been undermined over the last decade and is facing mounting threats since the 2020 elections. In recent days the Wisconsin Supreme Court has sided with unfair maps and the baseless investigation into the state’s election results is heating up.

What should defenders of democracy do now?

Matt Rothschild, the executive director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign and author of the new book 12 Ways to Save Democracy In Wisconsin will share ideas on how democracy advocates can stop the assault and move forward on issues to make democracy work better for everyone. He will also offer advice for activists to avoid burnout and remain hopeful about the future.

Rothschild’s 12 Ways to Save Democracy in Wisconsin is our February book discussion selection. Find out more on our Book Discussion page.
