EAU CLAIRE – Rep. Dana Wachs, a Democratic candidate for governor, responded to news released today that the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources approved four new permits allowing Foxconn to emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) into Wisconsin’s air: “There are few things more important than protecting the very air our children breathe.

U.S. Sens. Ron Johnson and Tammy Baldwin are on opposite sides over the appointment of Mike Pompeo as the next secretary of state. The nomination of Pompeo, the current CIA director, was approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Monday. Johnson, a member of the committee, said in a statement following the committee vote that Pompeo is “well-suited to serving as secretary of state.” “I have long said that presidents should be able to choose their top advisors, and it is sad that my Democratic colleagues on the committee collectively voted no on the confirmation of someone with the qualifications
