I am a proud Wisconsinite and I would like to think my state is pretty progressive when it comes to political issues however we far behind other states in regards to BSL.

Since 2016 over 100 cities in the USA and Canada have repealed their bans on pitbulls. Currently 22 states have passed legislation actually banning BSL. This prevents municipalities in those states from passing or enforcing bans on dogs based solely on breed. In 2021 there are four other states with active campaigns to end BSL statewide including Michigan, Iowa, Missouri, and Kentucky. This would bring the total to 26 states.

Research conducted on the effects of BSL has proven that it is a complete failure. We know from the data that breed bans do nothing to lower the number of serious bites, they are extremely expensive costing taxpayers millions with no proven benefits, and they are almost impossible to accurately enforce. 
No reputable animal welfare organization agrees with banning dogs based solely on breed. This is mostly due to the fact that there is no scientific proof that certain breeds are inherently more dangerous then others. Please help us end BSL statewide in WI and let good owners keep good dogs.
