2026 Campaign to Strengthen Democracy

In April, Wisconsinites will elect a new state supreme court justice to a ten-year term. Important races for governor, state and federal legislators, and constitutional referenda will appear on the November ballot.

As the federal government continues to abuse its power and violate core constitutional protections, we need a state Supreme Court that is unwaveringly committed to upholding our rights. The Wisconsin Supreme Court decides cases related to voting access, election administration, reproductive freedom, immigration detention, policing, and criminal legal protections. A single decision can affect millions of Wisconsinites.

Our top priority is to give Wisconsinites all the tools they need to make an informed decision this April. We want to ensure that Wisconsinites understand the stakes of this election and are educated about where the candidates stand on the issues. To do that, we’ll run a series of digital ads in different regions across the state and launch a radio campaign with our national partners.

In addition to investing in paid media strategies, we’ll also reach Wisconsinites through the press and other communication channels, deploying our expertise to educate people about their voting rights.
