Republican power grab in Wisconsin

You can’t compromise with these people – you just have to beat them.

Elections matter to Republicans…unless Democrats win.

Yesterday, Republican activists on the Wisconsin Supreme Court upheld the GOP legislature’s lame-duck power grab. Today, they executed a power grab of their own, stripping away veto powers that Governor Evers was elected to wield. It's a deliberate diminishment of democracy.

Wisconsin GOP wins power in 2010, gerrymander the legislature such that they can win a supermajority of seats without a majority of votes, pack the state courts, and raise new barriers and obstacles to voting. When Democrats win nonetheless, they strip power from the offices. https://t.co/yaIC43V7zi
