ALT Question 1 STOPPING FUTURE GOVERNORS FROM USING THE VETO TO CREATE OR RAISE TAXES Why does this matter? Wisconsin governors have the broadest partial veto power in the country and can remove words and digits to change what a budget that has already passed both the State Assembly and State Senate says and does. In 2023, Gov. Evers used his veto power to magically change a two-year school funding increase into a property tax hike for the next 400 years! This amendment would stop future governors from using the veto to create or raise taxes or fees. In other words... Yes Vote: I want to prevent the governor from being able to raise taxes or fees using a partial veto. This would prevent the Governor from raising taxes without a vote from the Legislature, as Gov. Evers did with his 400 Year Veto. No Vote: I want the governor to be able to raise taxes or fees through the partial veto. This means a future governor could raise your taxes without a vote from the Legislature.

ALT Question 2 PROTECTING THE FREEDOM TO WORSHIP Why does this matter? The freedom to freely exercise religion is at the heart of American democracy. However, during COVID, the Evers Administration and other county and local government agents restricted this fundamental right by limiting where, when, and how places of worship could meet. This amendment would ensure that no government official can prevent you or a House of Worship from freely meeting and worshiping. In other words... Yes Vote: I want to prohibit any government agents from dictating where, when, and how churches and any religious congregations can meet and worship. This would protect churches and other places of worship from being closed by government agents during any emergency, including a pandemic. No Vote: I want government agents to be able to override the 1st Amendment's protections of the freedom to worship by restricting Houses of Worship during an emergency.

ALT Question 3 BANNING GOVERNMENT-SPONSORED DISCRIMINATION Why does this matter? In 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that colleges could no longer use race as a factor in admissions decisions. However, that ruling didn't reach government hiring, contracting, or other public programs, where the government can still discriminate based on your race or sex. This amendment would prohibit the government from discriminating against or granting preferential treatment to anyone based on race or sex across public employment, education, contracting, and scholarships and grants. In other words... Yes Vote: I want to ban the government from giving preferential treatment or discriminating against people based on sex or race. No Vote: I want the government to be able to discriminate or give preferential treatment based on race and sex.
