Wisconsinites!

Keep calling your representatives and @govevers.wisconsin.gov and urge them to oppose this bill & protect free speech. There are better ways to fight antisemitism.

Thank you @markpocan.bsky.social for standing up for free speech.

Wisconsinites, please keep calling your district representatives and urging them to vote against AB446/SN445. And ask @govevers.wisconsin.gov to veto it.

As we celebrate the birth of the Beloved, may our words echo his gentleness, our actions reflect his justice, and our hearts be filled with his love.
