Madison Action Day

Many of us from the Wausau area attended Madison Action Day on April 27. We were in full force with many other WISDOM affiliates throughout the state. Thank you to Ron Alexander and NAOMI for providing bus transportation. We heard from many speakers, we watched a Drum Circle and a stellar performance from the Raging Grannies. In the afternoon we met with our elected officials to talk about issues we care about and that affect all of us! The following is a few of the issues in the state budget:

  • Restoring driver’s licenses for all Wisconsinites
  • Accepting the federal money to expand Badger Care
  • Supporting the proposed addition of $12 million to the TAD Budget (treatment instead of Prison)
  • Allocating $200 million for the replacement of lead service lines across the state
