WILL Files Brief Against a Wisconsin Athletic Association

WILL argues that WIAA is a state actor.

Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty has filed a friend of the court brief with the Wisconsin Supreme Court in a case against the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association or WIAA. WILL argues that because the WIAA monopolizes high school sports and has binding power over the public, including nearly ninety-thousand student-athletes, their parents, and public school officials, it should be considered a state actor and be bound by the state and federal constitutions.

Other states have already decided that organizations similar to WIAA are state actors. It makes sense for our state to do the same. Parents, student-athletes, and even public-school officials should not lose their constitutional rights because they are part of WIAA. As WILL notes, WIAA left unchecked “imposes a serious threat to the rights of Wisconsin families.”
