Two Events Today 9:30 & 2
September 13, 2025 – Two important events of note for you on Saturday.
First, the Grant Co. Dems are organizing a big demonstration in Platteville to protest Trump’s ongoing march toward authoritarianism. Platteville is an excellent location for such action, because politically it is a closely divided city. Therefore the bigger the numbers of people who show up for the demonstration, the more impactful it will be.
The rally will begin at 9:30 a.m. Those who want to attend should plan to meet at the intersection of Business 151 and Water Street in Platteville. Parking will be available in the hotel parking lot near the highway. You can either bring your own rally signs or the Grant Co. Dems will have some extras available for you.
After the rally, the Iowa County Dems will hold our regular monthly meeting in Mineral Point at 2:00 p.m. The address is 43 High St. We will devote much of the meeting to making plans for the next nine months or so. We need your help, so please consider coming to the meeting and contributing your ideas.

Monroe Cheese Factory
First up, the difficult situation at the cheese factory in Monroe continues without an obvious path toward resolution. The new owners of the plant want to implement ID requirements using e-Verify, and the workers fear that this move could lead to workers being fired and/or deported, causing people who have worked at that plant in some cases for decades to lose their jobs. Indivisible Southwest Wisconsin is sponsoring a Labor Day Community Dinner in Monroe for workers, their families and the community that has been supporting them. If you are interested in attending please contact Indivisible SWW at
