August 13th is an important Election Day for Wisconsin. Besides being a primary Election Day, there are two referendums on the ballet that cause concern. AAUW Wisconsin and the League of Women Voters, along with several other organizations have sent out information to clarify the confusing language for these items and made a strong recommendation to vote “no” on both.

See the attached articles for more information. https://my.lwv.org/wisconsin/event/why-vote-no-august-13-statewide-constitutional-amendment-questions-webinar?emci=1ee4e972-5335-ef11-86d2-6045bdd9e096&emdi=41f205e9-6f35-ef11-86d2-6045bdd9e096&ceid=9469
