👂 Listen to the experiences and stories of Survivors
🤝 Attend local commemorations, gatherings, or educational events hosted by Tribal Nations and Indigenous organizations

Wisconsin wants fair trade. 🌐

As global trade officials gather in Milwaukee for the G20 Trade Ministerial, Wisconsin workers and families have an opportunity to ask a basic question: Who is our trade policy supposed to work for? The Trump administration has made tariffs the centerpiece of its trade strategy. But working people need more than tariffs. We need good jobs, fair wages, strong communities, thriving family farms, environmental protections, and an economy where corporations don't get to write the rules for everyone else.

"Wi" deserve a worker-centered alternative to both the old corporate free-trade model and a tariff-only approach.
