WILL strongly supports the \u201cNo Taxation Without Representation\u201d Amendment and the Equality Amendment<\/strong><\/h1>\n
The News:<\/strong> The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) praises the Wisconsin state legislature for its first round of votes for Assembly Joint Resolutions (AJR) 112 and 109. The bills would strengthen our separation of powers, protect taxpayers, and ensure that all Wisconsinites are treated equally by our government.\u00a0If passed again next year, these proposed constitutional amendments could be on the ballot in April 2025.<\/div>\n

The Quotes:<\/strong> WILL Policy Director, Kyle Koenen, stated the following regarding the passing of AJR 112 or the \u201cNo Taxation Without Representation\u201d Amendment, \u201cOver the years, Wisconsin governors \u2013 from both parties \u2013 have pushed the boundaries of the partial veto and the Legislature and voters have responded accordingly. AJR 112 helps ensure that no governor from either party has the unilateral authority to raise taxes in the future. WILL is grateful for the legislature acting and moving this critical issue closer to a full vote of the people.\u201d<\/div>\n

WILL Deputy Counsel, Dan Lennington, stated the following regarding the passing of the Equality Amendment or AJR 109, \u201cRace discrimination should have no sanctuary in Wisconsin. Today, race discrimination is used as a tool by leftwing policymakers and bureaucrats to impose DEI and other similar racialized policies throughout Wisconsin. WILL applauds the state legislature for taking this important step to make Wisconsin laws colorblind.\u201d<\/div>\n
