This briefing features Wisconsin voters with disabilities, discussing how voting bills being voted on in the Legislature this week may create new barriers and make it harder to vote. As policymakers consider changes to Wisconsin voting laws, it is important that they safeguard the rights of voters with disabilities and older adults. The Disability Vote Coalition wants to work with policymakers to ensure our elections are accessible and inclusive of voters of all abilities.
The following voters will share their perspective:
- Stephanie Birmingham, Sturgeon Bay
- Andy Thain, Thorp
- Ramsey Lee, Hudson
- Melanie Ramey, Madison
Moderated by:
- Jenny Neugart, Wisconsin BPDD, WI Disability Vote Coalition
- Barbara Beckert, Disability Rights Wisconsin, Wi Disability Vote Coalition
