Federal

  • Thousands of people participated in the March for Life in Washington D.C. to oppose abortion. Vice President Mike Pence spoke at the rally, saying “Life is winning again in America. That is evident in...the historic election of a president...who I proudly say stands for the right to life.”

State

  • The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin ordered state lawmakers to draft and implement a new state legislative district map in advance of the November 2018 election. The court ordered that this plan be adopted by the legislature and signed into law by the governor by November 1, 2017. In November 2016, the court found that the existing map had been subject to an illegal partisan gerrymander. To learn more, see this article.
