Instead of dealing with any actual problems #Wisconsin's legislature is focused on securing partisan power. #FairCourts #NoGerrymandering #NoCheating

BREAKING: For the second time, the Senate voted against bringing to the floor a bill that would encourage states to suppress the First Amendment right to boycott. But now Senator McConnell is going to make a THIRD attempt to push it through.
