Join us for a critical discussion on the lasting impact of Scott Walker's policies in Wisconsin. Our featured speakers, John Havlicek, a representative from the teachers' union, and Christian Phelps, a Nonprofit organizer, Journalist, Educator, and Advocate, will explore the devastating effects of Act 10, including how it has harmed teachers, workers, and unions across the state. We'll also delve into Wisconsin's current political landscape, where despite being a purple state, the legislature remains predominantly red—leaving many Wisconsinites underrepresented. Learn how the new legislative maps could change this imbalance.

Additionally, we'll examine Scott Walker's involvement with ALEC and the harmful influence of ALEC-backed legislation on Wisconsin's economy and communities. Sydney Brennan, vice chair of the College Democrats, will also speak, with the possibility of other surprise guests.

Don’t miss this opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue about Wisconsin’s future!
