Advocacy That Protects Your Work & the CPA Profession
Public policy affects how CPAs serve clients. Tax rules change. Licensing standards evolve. Regulations shift. Those decisions shape your day-to-day work and the future of the profession.
WICPA represents Wisconsin CPAs in those conversations year-round. We bring practical expertise to lawmakers and regulators so decisions reflect real-world practice and serve the public.

Support advocacy through CPAC & LIF
Support WICPA's public policy outreach and help strengthen the profession’s voice.
CPAC primarily supports political candidates. LIF supports issue advocacy and education efforts. Together, they help WICPA advance CPA-friendly policy and respond to legislative and regulatory challenges.
What We Focus On
WICPA monitors and engages on issues that affect CPAs, their clients and the business community, including:
- Tax policy and reform that is fair, practical and workable
- Licensing and regulation that protects the public while supporting the profession
- Business and economic policy that encourages growth and stability
- Workforce and education initiatives that strengthen the CPA pipeline
- Technology and practice issues that shape how CPAs work
How We Do It
WICPA advocates in a way that is credible, professional and effective:
- Build relationships with legislators, regulators and state agencies
- Track legislation and regulatory proposals that affect CPAs
- Share professional insight on technical issues
- Engage with decision-makers on behalf of the profession
- Work with other business and professional organizations
Our advocacy is nonpartisan and grounded in what is best for CPAs and the public.
Why It Matters
When policymakers understand the CPA profession, they make better decisions. When they do not, the results can be costly, confusing and time-consuming.
WICPA helps ensure CPAs are part of the conversation before decisions are made.
