On Thursday, March 4th, the “Wisconsin 7” (Justin Blake, Joe Cardinali, Andy Berg, Jill Ferguson, Tory Lowe, Vaun Mayes, and Rev. Jonathan Barker) had their last meal for over 22 days. They are fasting for climate justice. Climate Justice for Wisconsin is a hopeful vision where everyone has a livable future; equal opportunity for good paying green jobs; and environmental justice with clean air, land, and water.
The Wisconsin 7 are demanding that Wisconsin's biennial budget pass with all of the climate justice provisions that Governor Evers has proposed. While the Governor's proposals are a modest start, there is no way that we can have climate justice and a livable future if we don't pass these.
Organizational endorsing sponsors are needed to help spread the word about this historic and heroic action. Learn more about the "Wisconsin Seven" at BuildingUnityWisconsin.org. For more information, write to
