Wisconsin had a record-setting $2.13 billion in food, forestry and agriculture exports in the first half of this year, buoyed by rising exports to key markets in Canada and Mexico. That’s according to the latest quarterly report from the International
Tiffany’s own rhetoric, exaggerations and misleading comments have not been useful at attaining delisting and may have emboldened efforts to challenge such delistings through the courts.
The central question before Democrats, however, is not simply how to answer attacks over ideology or crime. It is whether they can clearly and convincingly articulate concrete priorities that address Americans’ most immediate concerns about affordability, safety and foreign wars — while offering a larger, compelling vision of Americans working together to confront the complex challenges facing the country.
Congressman Tom Tiffany, the Republican candidate for governor in Wisconsin, is breaking with President Donald Trump and calling for an end to the war with Iran. … Does that mean Tiffany, as a congressman, will demand Congress reconvene so he can vote in favor of ending the war after opposing five other attempts in the House of Representatives to demand an end to the war? No, of course not.
Steil’s voting record shows he works for Donald Trump, not the people he is supposed to represent, nor the people of Wisconsin.
Wisconsin should be a place where people can build something, raise their families and have a fair opportunity to succeed.
Milwaukee Public Schools are ranked fourth worst in the nation, just after Detroit, Baltimore, and Jackson.
The internet didn’t get built safely because either chorus won the argument. It got built safely because the engineers who built it also built the guardrails, in parallel.
There has never been a moment in my lifetime when joy was more powerful and important than it is now, for our society is being poisoned. Choosing joy is not escapism, nor is it suffering with a smile, it is a conscious reaching for an antidote to the toxins.
There has likely never been a major party candidate for governor who poses a greater danger to our state’s environment than Tiffany.
Bottom line: Vote yes three times. And, if a school referendum shows up after that, vote no.
A high-profile security breach sparked outrage over jail tablets in Milwaukee County, but Shannon Ross argues the backlash ignores their role in supporting communication, education and successful reentry.
If people with disabilities in Wisconsin are stuck on a waitlist for employment services come January — and thousands still will be — they risk losing the Medicaid assistance that keeps them afloat.
CNN and Fox News rarely agree, but Trump’s decision to ban reporters from the White House brought competing networks together in defense of press freedom and the public’s right to know.
Retired conservative federal Judge Michael Luttig is just one of the many who are warning Americans that their form of government is imperiled. It’s no longer a hyperbolic claim. The MAGA crowd has a well-thought-out plan.
A data expert with Waukesha County urged local government leaders to ensure any processes they’re looking to automate with AI are well-defined, to avoid higher costs and other pitfalls. Kevin Koenig, the county’s IT data and solutions engineering manager, yesterday
After 16 years of GOP control, Democrats have a shot at winning a majority in the Wisconsin State Legislature. This would be a monumental shift, but it’s far from a given — especially in the Assembly.
When land usage and cost factors are considered, I speculate that rather than the BECI line having a 99% chance of approval by the WI PSC, its chance of being approved is somewhere between 80 and 90%. The deciding factor in the PSC’s decision of whether to approve the BECI line will rest on the quality of the cost-benefit analyses provided by the applicant and intervenors.
The State of Wisconsin has a projected $3 billion surplus. Here’s the YSDA plan for it.
The Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program has existed for decades. If Wisconsin taxpayers are going to be asked to support it for decades more, they deserve more than assurances that the program is working. We should be able to show them.
