Lawmakers: Make voting accessible to everyone
Steve Bower, Lake Mills
The people of Wisconsin believe that voting is a fundamental right of citizenship. Wisconsin voters turned out in record numbers in 2020.
Greatest Freedom
Patricia Giese, Johnson Creek
It is an incredibly difficult time to be optimistic about participating in the greatest freedom we have, going to the polls. We continue to watch politicians wrangle over the boundaries of our voting districts, one side attempting to cement the gerrymandering of 2011 in place, while the other side promotes non-partisan Fair Maps.
We must protect our right to vote
Leslie DeMuth, Lake Mills
We all want the freedom to vote and to know that our votes count. Yet some Republican lawmakers in Wisconsin seem intent on fighting against voters.
Stand up for our democracy
Sandy Whisler, Lake Mills
Our democracy is built on the freedom of everyone — regardless of zip code, color of skin or economic status — to have a say in the decisions that affect their lives. Our democracy works when our leaders value the input of everyone and, through robust discussion, pass laws that the majority favors.
