Read the Latest News Post - My State was a "Democracy Desert". This is How We Turned It Around  A Guest Essay in the New York Times by Ben Wikler

"This Is The Plan", Ben Wikler Book Tour

Ben will be in Eau Claire as part of his book tour.  CLICK HERE to reserve a free ticket.

Ben Wikler writes: “As I wrote in the op-ed, ‘A Three-Step Plan to Undo Trump’s Assault on Democracy,’ there are things every one of us can do, right now, to ensure democracy’s survival—and even flourishing—in our country.’ I’m hoping that the book and the tour can galvanize more people to do more of those things.

If you feel the same way, please read and share the op-ed, pre-order the book, and then RSVP for a ticket to a book tour event near you. And I’d be grateful if you could spread the word—to your group chats, social media platforms, fellow organizing group or union members, and other networks.”f

LEND YOUR VOICE ON JUNE 24TH!
Healthcare Protest: June 24, 1:30pm-2:30pm, Mayo Clinic Health System, 1221 Whipple St., Eau Claire
One year ago on the Fourth of July, Trump signed the Big Ugly Bill into law — stripping health care from millions of Americans, including an estimated 276,000 Wisconsinites, to fund tax cuts for corporations and billionaires. Wisconsin families are still paying the price. And Wisconsin hospitals are at risk of closure.

We're hoping you won't let that anniversary pass quietly.
