U.S. Citizenship Requirement to Vote
We Support. The right of the American people to vote and choose their representatives is retained solely by citizens of the United States, who, owing true faith and allegiance to the U.S. Constitution, are not subject to any foreign power. According to Article 1, Section 4, of the Constitution, the “times, places, and manner of holding elections” for Congress shall be prescribed in each state by its legislature.

SJR32 proposes to amend the Wisconsin Constitution to provide that only a U.S. citizen age 18 or older who is a resident of an election district in Wisconsin is eligible to vote in the state. The Assembly passed SJR32 on February 24, 2022, by a vote of 60 to 35 (Vote 249).

AB963 | 22/Feb/2022 | Good: Yes | Yes |
Parental Rights
We Support. The upbringing, education, health care, and mental health of children belongs to--and is a fundamental right of--parents, not any governmental body. Parental rights, as with all other rights, freedoms, privileges, or immunities of American citizens, are protected by the Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Nothing in AB963 authorizes a parent or guardian to abuse or neglect a child in violation of state law.

AB963 would prohibit the state from infringing on the fundamental right of parents or guardians to direct the upbringing, education, health care, and mental health of their children. The Assembly passed AB963 on February 22, 2022, by a vote of 60 to 34 (Vote 209). We have assigned pluses to the ayes because the upbringing, education, health care, and mental health of children belongs to–and is a fundamental right of–parents, not the government. Parental rights, as with all other rights, freedoms, privileges, or immunities of American citizens, are protected by the Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Nothing in AB963 authorizes a parent or guardian to abuse or neglect a child in violation of state law. View vote details at docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2021/proposals/reg/asm/bill/ab963 |

AB834 | 25/Jan/2022 | Good: No | Yes |
No-Knock Search Warrants
We Oppose. This bill undermines the rights of Americans protected specifically by the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. ‘No-knock’ warrants, by definition, violate the basic principle that law enforcement should not forcibly enter a premises without first providing notice of their authority and purpose of executing a warrant.

AB834 creates a statutory provision that permits law enforcement officers to execute “no-knock” search warrants in certain “dangerous” or “ineffective” situations. The Assembly passed AB834 on January 25, 2022, by a vote of 58 to 34 (Vote 174). We have assigned pluses to the nays because this bill undermines the rights of Americans protected specifically by the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. ‘No-knock’ warrants, by definition, violate the basic principle that law enforcement should not forcibly enter a premises without first providing notice of their authority and purpose of executing a warrant.

AB293 | 09/Jun/2021 | Good: Yes | Yes |
Limiting Enforcement of Federal Firearms Laws
We Support. The fundamental right of the American people to keep and bear arms should not be infringed, as guaranteed by the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Whenever the federal government assumes unconstitutional firearms restrictions, state nullification of such acts is protected by the 10th Amendment.

AB293 provides restrictions on state and local officials in Wisconsin from enforcing federal laws regulating firearms, accessories, and ammunition. The Assembly passed AB293 on June 9, 2021, by a vote of 61 to 36 (Vote 71). We have assigned pluses to the ayes because the fundamental right of the American people to keep and bear arms should not be infringed, as guaranteed by the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Whenever the federal government assumes unconstitutional firearms restrictions, state nullification of such acts is protected by the 10th Amendment.

AJR9 | 11/May/2021 | Good: No | Yes |
Article V Convention: Constitutional Amendments
We Oppose. States should act immediately to nullify all unconstitutional federal laws, rather than risk an Article V convention. Article V of the U.S. Constitution was designed to correct potential errors or defects in the Constitution, not the failure of elected officials to uphold their oath of office.
Read More
AJR9 applies to Congress, under the provisions of Article V of the U.S. Constitution, to call for a “Convention of the States limited to proposing amendments to the Constitution of the United States that impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and limit the terms of office for its officials and for members of Congress.” The Assembly passed AJR9 on May 11, 2021, by a vote of 58 to 36 (Vote 70). We have assigned pluses to the nays because states should act immediately to nullify all unconstitutional federal laws, rather than risk an Article V convention. Article V of the U.S. Constitution was designed to correct potential errors or defects in the Constitution, not the failure of elected officials to uphold their oath of office.

SJR3 | 04/Feb/2021 | Good: Yes | No |
Terminating the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency
We Support. Article IV, Section 1, of the Wisconsin Constitution vests lawmaking power in the Senate and the Assembly, not the Governor. Each state, under Article IV, Section 4, of the U.S. Constitution, is guaranteed a republican form of government, which requires a limitation and separation of powers.

SJR3 terminated the COVID-19 public health emergency declared by Governor Tony Evers in Executive Order #104 on January 19, 2021, and all actions of the Governor and all emergency orders issued pursuant to the declaration of the public health emergency. The Assembly passed SJR3 on February 4, 2021, by a vote of 52 to 42 (Vote 14). We have assigned pluses to the ayes because Article IV, Section 1, of the Wisconsin Constitution vests lawmaking power in the Senate and the Assembly, not the Governor. Each state, under Article IV, Section 4, of the U.S. Constitution, is guaranteed a republican form of government, which requires a limitation and separation of powers.
