Wisconsin voters will decide on three proposed constitutional amendments on the November 2026 ballot. These questions address the governor’s partial veto authority, restrictions on closing places of worship during emergencies, and a proposed ban on government programs addressing racial and gender inequality, including diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. WPHA and WALHDAB have developed an informational resource to help voters understand each amendment and what a “YES” vote would mean. Learn more and make an informed decision before heading to the polls!
