Wisconsin Business Leaders for Democracy Coalition

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has agreed to hear a lawsuit challenging the state’s congressional maps, alleging they are anti-competitive gerrymandered to protect incumbents. The decision reflects the court’s partisan split, with four liberal justices accepting the case while two conservative justices accused the majority of political bias. The case, brought by a bipartisan business group, argues that the maps violate a 2011 state law and may not conclude in time to alter the maps for the November midterms.
