“Passing this legislation is something we can do now to ensure representation for the next 10 years and beyond,” Rothschild said ### The League of Women Voters of Wisconsin is a nonpartisan political organization that advocates for informed and active participation in government. There are 20 local Leagues throughout Wisconsin. More information at lwvwi.org. |
