Learn With League: Fall Ballot Questions
Wednesday, September 23, 5:30 - 7:00 pm
La Crosse Public Library
Main Floor Auditorium, 800 Main St., La Crosse, WI
You're invited to this free event. Light refreshments will be provided. Learn before you mark your ballot!
Our topic covers the three State of WI referendum questions that will appear on Fall Election ballots, as follows:
1. Governor’s Partial Veto
2. Worship During Emergencies
3. Governmental Entity Discrimination Prohibited
Program Information:
This informational session will discuss the nature of constitutional amendments, unpack the wording of each question, and explain potential impacts if one or all are passed by voters. The League of Women Voters of Wisconsin is opposed to these proposed constitutional amendments. Regarding Question #3, discrimination is already illegal in WI and nationwide. The referendum actually would make public equity-based programs unconstitutional by banning preferential treatment.
