Thank you to everyone who's signed and supported our push to end the hidden PILOT tax on Wausau's water utility! 🚀 We're seeing real progress on multiple fronts: Just yesterday, the petition earned its first media spotlight in a detailed article by Shereen Siewert in the Wausau Pilot & Review, spotlighting our call for transparency and affordability amid the ongoing water rate debates. You can read the full coverage here: Wausau Petition Seeks to Eliminate Utility Payments as Debate Over Water Rates Continues.

On top of that, City Council District 6 candidate Keene Winters endorsed the petition today, adding a powerful voice to our cause. Plus, we've had a surge of new signatures in the last few days—shoutout to recent signers like Matthew K., Nancy V., Connie J., and many more joining the fight! 💪

This is proof that our community is uniting against these sneaky fees that drive up water bills without us even knowing. With every signature and share, we're getting closer to holding city leaders accountable and redirecting those funds to lower rates or better infrastructure.

But we need your help to amplify this: Please share the petition on your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Nextdoor accounts today! Tag friends in Wausau who care about fair utilities, and let's hit our next milestone together. Ask your elected officials to endorse us. Your share could be the one that tips the scales. 🌊✊

Grateful for this growing movement—onward!
