Dear John,
Two Major Victories for Voters in the Battleground State of Wisconsin who united and declared elections belong to the people, not to out-of-state billionaires.
In a historic move, 54% of voters have approved a constitutional amendment that further strengthens the ban on private funding of elections. This landmark decision, put forward by Republicans and Wisconsin voters in response to the alarming influence of outside donations, solidifies Wisconsin's commitment to elections free from the influence of private funding and outside interests.
Despite fierce opposition from Democrats and liberal organizations, the will of the people prevails, marking a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to protect the foundation of our Constitutional Republic.
58% of voters have also approved another crucial amendment emphasizing that only election officials can administer elections. While already established in state law, enshrining this principle in the constitution ensures its enduring protection against any future attempts to undermine it.
Democrats opposed both measures, as these amendments sever significant hyper-partisan voter turnout mechanisms that have purportedly influenced elections by as much as 20% in swing states and counties.
Both constitutional amendments were prompted from the large influx of grant money Wisconsin received in 2020 from Zuckerberg's Center for Tech and Civic Life during the COVID-19 pandemia, which saw a staggering $300 million donation from Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan.
Notably, Wisconsin's five largest cities, all won by President Joe Biden, received a combined $8.8 million of this funding, while approximately 200 communities statewide benefited from around $10 million, part of a larger $350 million distributed nationally.
Act for America has helped 27 states enact legislation to prohibit or limit the acceptance of private election grants beginning in 2020. We have 23 states to go to protect exploitation of our election vulnerabilities with one of the Left’s top 3 most effective, partisan voter turnout mechanisms in their playbook!
Nearly 1.5 Million Direct-to-Lawmaker Actions Taken by Members and Friends along 217 thousand posts on X (Twitter) and Facebook by our digital activist community! That’s real people power!
Conservatives are increasingly turning to ballot initiatives as a powerful tool to circumvent obstacles posed by a veto-happy governor or a legislature controlled by leftist interests that do not align with constitutional values.
The successful passage of these two state constitutional amendments in Wisconsin serves as a testament to the true power of the people when they actively engage in the legislative process. By participating in a living representative republic, voters have demonstrated their ability to shape the future of their state and uphold the principles upon which their nation was founded. This victory underscores the importance of grassroots activism and civic engagement in safeguarding our Republic and ensuring that government remains accountable to the will of the people.
Let us celebrate this momentous occasion and reaffirm our dedication to a Republic by and for the people.
Stronger together, Wisconsin!
