The Ninety-First Wisconsin Legislature convened from January 4, 1993, to January 3, 1995, in regular session, and also convened in two special sessions.

This was the first legislative session after the redistricting of the Senate and Assembly according to a decision of a three-judge panel of the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin in 1992.

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 3, 1992. 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 6, 1990.

The governor of Wisconsin during this entire term was Republican Tommy Thompson, of Juneau County, serving the second two years of his second four-year term, having won re-election in the 1990 Wisconsin gubernatorial election.
