#OnThisDay in 1866, Congress passed the 14th Amendment, which granted citizenship to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which included former and recently freed slaves. The amendment was ratified by the states on July 9, 1868.

Yesterday, a top Trump Administration official made an apparent threat to arrest me.

The #EqualRightsAmendment meets all requirements to be added to the Constitution. It’s time for gender equality to move forward!
Tell President Biden to publish the #ERA and make history!
Let’s protect everyone from gender discrimination: lwv.org/take-action/presiden…

The fairer and more competitive state legislative voting maps in place this year made a difference in the outcome on November 5th. Fairer voting maps were a bigger factor in Wisconsin elections than in any other state this past year!

The League of Women Voters stands in solidarity with women and individuals who may become pregnant in the fight to protect reproductive freedom. 🧵 #ReproductiveRightsAreHumanRights
Not only is the right to a safe and legal abortion a matter of personal freedom, it’s also a major factor in the movements for racial and economic equality.
Black women & all underserved communities already experience inequitable barriers & limited access to adequate health care services. Many communities targeted w/ voter suppression are the same ones most impacted when reproductive freedom is limited or taken away #AbortionRights

Time for another #BallotBulletin! 🔒LWVWI launched this series to highlight various election security topics so we are all better informed.
Let's look at Wisconsin's unique system of administering elections at the local level & the strengths of a decentralized system. #WIVotes

LWV strongly condemns the racist text messages sent after Election Day targeting Black residents in multiple states across the country. These vile messages have no place in our democracy. We stand united against hate & for the protection & civic participation of all communities.
