MADISON, Wis – Wisconsin’s Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives have launched an effort to urge the state Supreme Court to shut down the latest challenge to congressional maps before it can even start. The lawsuit, filed by Law Forward on behalf of Wisconsin Business Leaders for Democracy and others, alleges the state’s current congressional district maps are “anti-competitive gerrymanders” that disadvantage voters by protecting incumbents.  However, unlike previous unsuccessful challenges to the current maps, Law Forward filed the lawsuit in the Dane County circuit court, not in the state Supreme Court.
