Building Unity is a joint project of Wisconsin Network for Peace, Justice & Sustainability (WNPJS), Wisconsin Grassroots Network (WGN), Family Farm Defenders (FFD), and many others.

Beginning Spring 2018, we will take this project on the road to connect with groups and individuals throughout Wisconsin and strengthen our growing culture that is committed to peace, justice, freedom, sustainability, and democracy.

Madison, Wisconsin - May 21, 2018 - Today’s U.S. Supreme Court decision in Epic Systems Corp v Lewis is a defeat for working Americans and a big win for large corporations.

Baraboo, WI - May 8, 2018 - The Solar Sauk County program has reached its first benchmark of 50 kilowatts (kW), triggering savings that apply to everyone who goes solar through the program. The program, which began in March, allows individual home and commercial property owners to access lower prices for solar installations through the power of volume purchasing. As such, at each interval of 50, 125, and 200 kW of solar capacity that the program participants collectively achieve, the price of solar is reduced.

Send a letter, sign the petition – and, most importantly, also make a CALL to your US Representative in Congress—TODAY.
