Abortion is still legal and available in Wisconsin.
The Trump regime snuck abortion restrictions into the big billionaire bill, which is now law. However, two independent clinics in Milwaukee County will continue to provide abortion care.

ACLU of Wisconsin asks state Supreme Court to declare immigrant jail holds illegal
The ACLU argues that it's illegal for Wisconsin sheriffs to hold immigrants in jail beyond state limits at ICE's request.
We believe county sheriffs in Wisconsin are legally prohibited from holding individuals on administrative detainers for ICE, so we're suing to challenge the practice.
We'll use every tool at our disposal to defend the rights of immigrants.

The image has a black background and with a collage of several people in police uniforms facing protesters and people in fatigues and police uniforms with guns. Underneath the image reads ACLU WI. The text above the collage reads the U.S. military shouldn't be policing our communities.
The Trump regime has deployed the National Guard to Washington DC and is threatening to send them to even more cities. This represents another gross abuse of power that we all must reject.

Wisconsin county sheriffs are paid per diem to hold people for ICE in these facilities: Brown County Jail ($70), Dodge County Jail ($100), Douglas County Jail ($75), and Sauk County Jail ($106).
At least four Wisconsin sheriffs' departments — Brown, Dodge, Douglas, and Sauk County — are paid jailers for the deportation machine.
Being undocumented is not a crime, yet we're seeing families split apart and frequent violations of due process rights.

The "Keep Families Together" Package: Drawing the Line Against Authoritarianism - ACLU of Wisconsin
These bills directly respond to authoritarian-style abuses like secret police, due process violations, and local immigration detention.
A government that can disappear your immigrant neighbor today can disappear you tomorrow.
The “Keep Families Together” bill package led by @ryanclancywi.bsky.social and @darrinmadison.bsky.social is a direct response to authoritarian-style abuse.

Black graphic with a quote in white text: "We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." In red text, the quote is attributed to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Dissenting in Noem v. Perdomo
Yesterday's Supreme Court decision endangers our communities and subjects people to immigration stops simply because of the color of their skin, occupation, or the language they speak.
This fight isn't over. Our right to live free from racial profiling is fundamental.

Wisconsin will not bow to occupation. Milwaukee County residents—send a message to your elected officials now: secure.ngpvan.com/OOaZ4wzu1kG-...

President Trump deployed military troops and federal agents to DC and LA to respond to made-up emergencies, and is now threatening to do the same in other cities across the country.
