WOA Endorsement

We, the undersigned organizations and constituents, endorse the Wisconsin Opportunity Act (SB 467, AB 508), which aims to provide meaningful policies and investments to reduce poverty and fundamentally improve people’s economic circumstances. This act furthers the goal of addressing the systemic barriers to achieving economic stability by providing housing, health, job training, transportation, and income supports.

SB 467 is the result of extensive consultation with stakeholders and local communities and features fundamentally sound practices for improving the lives of low and moderate-income households across the state. Enacting and implementing WOA will position our state as a leader in promoting inclusive economic development.

As organizations dedicated to addressing poverty and promoting economic opportunity and security for all Wisconsinites, we strongly support passage of this critical piece of legislation. 

We urge you to pass  SB 467/AB 508 .

Sincerely,
