Wisconsin Way forums--round 2

According to a news release issued by the Wisconsin Way, billed as an effort to improve the fairness of Wisconsin’s tax system while preserving the quality of public services, more than 5,000 state residents have participated in the process through town hall meetings and organizational briefings.　

Now, the Wisconsin Way leaders are working with a nonpartisan team of budget experts, policy advisers, economic development leaders, academics and financial industry members to turn the public’s priorities into a workable blueprint for the state.　Together, members of the Wisconsin Education Association Council, Wisconsin REALTORS® Association, Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association, Wisconsin Counties Association, and Wood Communications Group will kick off the second round of Wisconsin Way public forums June 24 in Eau Claire through August 19 in Madison.

Forum locations close to SW Wisconsin include:　

La Crosse, July 29
Platteville, August 5
Madison, August 19

As with the first round of meetings, which took place from October through January, the public forums are free and designed to draw citizens from all walks of life. Participants from the first round of meetings are strongly encouraged to continue the conversation by returning, while new participants also are welcome to add their voices as the blueprint takes shape.
