The petition to the Wisconsin Judicial Commission reads:

"The legal system cannot work unless citizens have faith that its representatives, especially its judges, are fair and impartial.

Throughout the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, Judge Bruce Schroeder made a number of statements, motions, and decisions that called his impartiality and professionalism into doubt, including allowing Rittenhouse to do the random draw of final jurors, making inappropriate jokes and comments, and disallowing the word “victims” from being used to describe the people killed by Rittenhouse, but allowing “looters”, “rioters,” and “arsonists”.

We are asking you to open an investigation into Bruce Schroeder to determine if he is guilty of judicial misconduct. The people of Wisconsin have a right to know that their judges are applying the law with an even hand and without bias."
