The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) has filed a lawsuit seeking a writ of mandamus on behalf of several parents in the Milwaukee Public School District (MPS). This civil action seeks to hold the Milwaukee Board of School Directors, which oversees MPS, accountable for failing to provide the number of school resource officers (SROs) state law requires in order to protect MPS schools and students. Wisconsin law requires that no fewer than 25 SROs shall be present within Milwaukee public schools. https://lnkd.in/gBcj4yZc #schoolsafety #milwaukeepublicschools #lawsuit #litigation

Our ideals are neither Democratic nor Republican, but American.
About us
An old military adage calls for the cavalry to "ride to the sound of the guns." As a tactic, it has both its strengths and weaknesses. As a sentiment, it is a call for courageous engagement. At the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, we hope to answer that call. Through education, litigation, and participation in public discourse, we seek to advance the public interest in the rule of law, individual liberty, constitutional government, and a robust civil society. We strive to do so, moreover, in partnership with like-minded individuals and organizations - often our clients - who are committed to classical liberalism and constitutional government. We recognize that these ideals are neither Democratic nor Republican, but American. Our focus is primarily, if not exclusively, on Wisconsin - a state that has become one of the focal points of our ongoing debate about the proper role of the government within society and of the courts within government. As a non-profit and non-partisan organization, we litigate in the areas of property rights, the freedom to earn a living, voting rights, regulation, taxation, school choice, and religious freedom. As an educational organization, we strive to advance the debate concerning law and public policy in these and other areas.

Today the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) released a new report suggesting policy actions that can be taken by the federal, state, and local governments to support social capital. We also highlight the rising importance of employers in building social capital in the workplace. From Isolation to Connection is the third and final report examining the impact social capital has on Wisconsin communities. WILL Policy Associate, Miranda Spindt, stated, “The world around is falling apart at the seams, from the mental health crisis to growing inequality and distrust—and as a society we refuse to talk about why. WILL has been at the forefront of exploring and confronting these barriers and in our new report we put solutions – government and private alike – front and center. We hope moving this conversation forward can restore critical connections between friends, family, neighbors, and members of the community.” #socialcapital #policy #policysolutions https://lnkd.in/gppwkU6A
