Wisconsin Is Better Than This

By WISDOM


In April, State Senator Scott Fitzgerald and Assembly Speaker Robin Vos teamed up with a majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court to make a historically bad decision. Seeking a political advantage, they forced Wisconsinites to choose between exercising their right to vote and their health. That decision to overrule the Governor’s plan to postpone the spring election certainly caused further spread of the COVID-19 virus.


Yesterday, the same forces teamed up to do something even more dangerous. They overturned Governor Evers’ “Safer at Home” order, which had been working well to reduce the spread of COVID-19 in our state. They did it without an alternate plan, and without any goal other than to make Wisconsin un-governable. ‘WISDOM has supported the “Safer at Home” order, and we sincerely hope that our members and our congregations will show better judgement and more respect for human life than the segment of our political leadership that prevailed yesterday.
