New Report Breaks Down Redistricting Process In Plain English; Explains Its Importance By Law Forward - Apr 15th, 2021 11:16 am
MADISON, WI. APRIL 15 “I have been talking about redistricting with everyone from members of the legislature and activists to my family and friends. And two things have become clear to me. First, most people understand the importance of the redistricting process. And second, very few people understand how it works and, critically, how it will unfold in Wisconsin this year with divided government, census delays, and increased public interest.”
That is the observation that Law Forward Staff Counsel
Mel Barnes shared with her colleagues last month. With the 2020 Census Data expected to be shared with the states in the next few weeks, an event which marks the real start of the redistricting process, the Law Forward team realized the need for a clear layperson’s guide to the redistricting process.

Republican leaders undermine democracy
I assume that political leaders are intelligent, educated and informed. Should we assume that when they share disinformation, they are lying?
Republican leaders know enough about medical science and research to understand how the COVID-19 crisis needs to be addressed.
Now, Republican leaders know that there was little/no voter fraud. They know that Mr. Biden and Ms. Harris won. They know that Wisconsinâs elections were free and fair.
But Wisconsin Republicans continue to share propaganda and lie to constituents about 2020 elections.
Their hostile partisanship, aggressive refusal to listen to/follow scientific recommendations, and negligence in serving and protecting our own citizens have cost lives. Their actions and inactions have killed Wisconsin citizens.
