Reclaim. Rebuild.
Reimagine Wisconsin.
Reimagine Wisconsin is a movement to dismantle the structural racism that holds everyone back. Together, we demand that our labor builds our communities—not the wealth of the few.
This year, the state budget is our greatest opportunity to ensure that every family — regardless of zip code, income, or race — has a solid foundation in Wisconsin.
