Our guest presenter will be Joan Schwarz with the League of Women Voters of Milwaukee County. She’ll lead a nonpartisan briefing on AJR 102, a proposed constitutional amendment that would change how state and local governments can act on race, sex, ethnicity, and national origin in public employment, public education, and public contracting.

WF Civic Breaks offer the briefing; WF Laundry Nights offer the space to talk it through together.
