Ryeshia Farmer

Ryeshia has been employed at the ACLU of Wisconsin since January of 2020

"There is no greater defender of the people than the ACLU. For years, they have been leaders on the right side of just about every civil rights and civil liberties issue that I can think of, and they have been there with integrity and without bias. Of course, I jumped at the offer to be a part of the ACLU of Wisconsin, where I can fight for the issues that matter most to me and fight with people I care deeply about."

As the Rights for All Campaign Coordinator, Ryeshia is responsible for managing a statewide network of organizers who work to ensure that voters disenfranchised because of a criminal conviction have the means to reengage in the electoral process. She also helps to integrate voting rights issues into the broader mission of our Campaign for Smart Justice.

Ryeshia is passionate about:

Criminal Legal Reform

LGBTQ+ Rights

Racial Justice

Immigrants' Rights
