Government Relations
Welcome to the University of Wisconsin Colleges and University of Wisconsin-Extension Government Relations home page. On this site you will find tools for you to help shape key decisions that will be made by Wisconsin's elected officials in the coming months.
We believe that when citizens express their ideas during the creation of public policy, the end result better serves Wisconsin's people. For that reason, we have designed this site to make it easier for you to share your views with your elected officials on your own time and using your own resources.
