Wisconsin Conservation Voters

Thank you to everyone who attended our film premiere last week. Our new documentary, "The Fight for Progress: Wisconsin’s Push for Lead Pipe Replacement," made its big-screen debut in Milwaukee, followed by a fantastic Q&A discussion with experts working on the issue.

We’re grateful to our partners at the BlueGreen Alliance and to everyone who joined us for the screening and conversation. Watch the full film at the link in our bio!

The Public Service Commission made an important decision Friday that will protect our pocketbooks! It rejected WE Energies' proposal to make ratepayers cover much of the cost to build new infrastructure needed for data centers, and instead requires data centers to cover that cost.

We need state legislation that writes this into law so everyday people are protected from rising utility bills. Thanks to the Clean Economy Coalition of Wisconsin for their work on this!

Some of our staff spent their Earth Day afternoon sharing a hike with Governor Tony Evers in Spring Green at Tower Hill State Park! The hike was part of several events the governor participated in across the state to celebrate Earth Day. Thank you Gov. Evers for all the work you've done on behalf of Wisconsin's environment. We're deeply grateful.

Join us May 5 at 6 p.m. at the Avalon! Gonna a be a fun, informative night with folks who love Milwaukee and want its future to be lead-free.
