Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox legislative term
The Sixty-Fifth Wisconsin Legislature convened from Шаблон:Nowrap to Шаблон:Nowrap in regular session.[1]
This legislative term coincided with the United States entrance into World War II. This session also represents the first time the Legislature failed to pass a redistricting act on schedule. Ultimately, no redistricting would occur in Wisconsin in the 1940s.
Senators representing even-numbered districts were newly elected for this session and were serving the first two years of a four-year term. Assembly members were elected to a two-year term. Assembly members and even-numbered senators were elected in the general election of November 5, 1940. Senators representing odd-numbered districts were serving the third and fourth year of a four-year term, having been elected in the general election of November 8, 1938.[1]
