Again, if they fire you for this you would win in court for constitutional reasons in which case you would probably be very rich and wouldn't have to work for this loser company anyways. Also remember the pre-emptive statute. I think a judge looking at the facts would have to side with you and not the employer. Even though the pre-emptive statute addresses cities, towns, and villages, in a situation like this it could also set a precidence to extend that statute to employers as well. Besides I don't think you are going to find a police officer that is going to listen to your employer and search your vehicle. But then again stranger things have happened.I disagree. As I stated above, refusal to sign the form IS reason enough for them to fire you. As LS16SpdZ99 correctly points out, you can be fired for no reason whatsoever in Wisconsin! If you are refusing to sign their form you are basically refusing to follow the employer's work rules and that IS a legitimate reason to fire you.
Employers cannot fire someone for a discriminatory reason, but any OTHER reason is legal. Firing without a reason is legal. A "discriminatory" reason means one of the few things specifically outlined by law, e.g., because of your age (over 40), your gender, marital status, religion, color, etc.
Now, if one-half of the employees refused to sign the form and they only fired, say, the black workers who refused to sign it, or only the older workers, you might have a viable discrimination complaint. Lacking that, you're screwed my friend. And that's exactly what they'll tell you when you call the state Equal Rights Division. Call them and ask.
