Our September Program presents information about Clarke v. Wisconsin Election Commission, the case before the Wisconsin Supreme Court that charges that the current maps violate the Wisconsin Constitution. On August 2, 2023, 19 Wisconsin voters filed a petition with the Wisconsin Supreme Court alleging that the current maps are partisan gerrymanders in violation of the Wisconsin Constitution's guarantees of equal protection, free speech, and free association. 

This program is a learning opportunity on your own time. The one-hour press conference about the case is available on YouTube here. We encourage you to watch this video with family and/or friends. On the Law Forward website you can read the press release, brief, and petition, as well as view examples of non-contiguous district maps that are being challenged.

League Discussion Units will meet to discuss this case during the third week of September. If you aren’t already a member of a discussion unit, please let the leader know you plan to attend.
