The One Hundred Seventh Wisconsin Legislature is the current ongoing legislative term in Wisconsin. It was convened on January 6, 2025, in regular session, and is scheduled to conclude on January 4, 2027, though it adjourned for legislative activity on February 20, 2026. The governor has called a special session of the legislature for April 14, 2026, to debate a constitutional amendment to ban partisan redistricting.^[1]

Senators representing even-numbered districts are newly elected for this session and are serving the first two years of a four-year term. Assembly members are elected to a two-year term. Assembly members and even-numbered senators were elected in the general election of November 5, 2024. Senators representing odd-numbered districts are serving the third and fourth year of their four-year term, having been elected in the general election of November 8, 2022.^[2]

The governor of Wisconsin during this term is Democrat Tony Evers, of Dane County, serving the second two years of his second four-year term, having won re-election in the 2022 Wisconsin gubernatorial election. Both the Wisconsin State Assembly and the Wisconsin Senate are led by Republicans, meaning the Legislature faces a rival party in the governor's mansion.
