Desc1. WISDOM Action Day at the State Capitol on April 30, 2017 drew over 800 WISDOM members from across the state to Bethel Lutheran Church who participated in worship, workshops and relationship-building. 10 breakout sessions included: TAD and 17 year-olds (together); Education (led by youth); Old Law Parole and Compassionate Release; Revocations; Transitional Jobs; Immigration; Back Forty Mine; Transit; Solitary Confinement; Health Care as a Human Right. In the afternoon all delegates processed to the Capitol where every Senator and Assembly Representative's office was visited by a WISDOM delegation with conversation either with the legislator or an aide. 2. In June, 2017 EXPO held their first fundraising banquet and launched the #Closemsdf Campaign. This campaign demonstrates the need to end "Crimeless revocations" in Wisconsin and has drawn support from hundreds of groups and individuals. EXPO members give presentations to religious groups and community organizations across the state. They also hold a Prayer Vigil outside either MSDF or the Milwaukee County Courthouse on the 23rd of every month in memory of the death date of James Wilbur, EXPO member who died while incarcerated in MSDF.Desc
