WEDC provided $229 million to 303 businesses and other recipients in Wisconsin in the latest fiscal year, exceeding the prior year’s total of $198 million. That’s according to Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. Secretary and CEO John Miller, who discussed the
And Hong looked inexperienced at times. Which candidates were the strongest?
Plus: Coverage from the scene, inside the room at the debate and in the post-debate Spin Room at Marquette University, in what Mandela Barnes called “the most ridiculous race in the country.”
None of the other 4 took after the poll leader.
The candidates as the ‘Breakfast Club,’ and what’s going on at the CRAZ
Wisconsin’s data center debate, much like discussions in other states, is far from over. Political candidates in both parties must be careful not to hurt their own constituents – people who work in manufacturing, health care, construction and other sectors – by imposing ill-considered rules. The only winners in that approach will be other states or nations.
Grassroots opposition to the expansion of hyperscale data centers has generated a rare moment when members of both parties seem unified with many voters. In the context of such disputes, rural people deserve to hear real commitments for positive change. Those running for governor in Wisconsin need rural votes. It’s time voters make the candidates earn them.
If we invest in our workforce, embrace innovation, and ensure manufacturers have access to the talent they need, this comeback will not simply be a short-term rebound.
Together, we can create a Wisconsin where families are respected, children are supported, and public resources are invested in strengthening education, mental health, and the well-being of future generations. Let’s keep Wisconsin true to its values and not allow Wisconsin to become Minnesota.
Socialism is fundamentally about reorganizing ownership of the means of production. It demands that decisions regarding what to produce are taken away from the individual and put into the hands of a collective.
Our nation is in need of radical change. Middle- and working-class Americans must use their votes this November to unseat the Republicans in Congress who have allowed our democracy to be pushed aside to honor one man’s demand of power.
McConnell’s prolonged absence from the Senate has renewed questions about the 84-year-old’s health and whether America should consider age limits for its elected leaders.
When a U.S. Senator drops the F‑word in a hearing, it doesn’t project passion but clearly broadcasts a failure of discipline. The word itself is crude, corrosive, and intellectually lazy. In a setting meant for reasoned debate and civic respect, profanity drags the conversation into the gutter, signaling that emotion has overtaken intellect.
Marquette University Law School Dean Joseph D. Kearney reflected on the Declaration of Independence in remarks to the Rotary Club of Milwaukee earlier this month.
The remaining five Democrats running for their party’s nomination for governor met Tuesday night for the one and only televised debate, and none of the candidates took a swipe at the frontrunner, state Rep. Francesca Hong, the democratic socialist in the race.
More than ever, Wisconsin needs a governor who can lead with the values, ideas and vision that put working people at the center of every decision.
Democrats are free to support whichever candidate they prefer. But before casting a ballot, they should ask themselves one simple question: Why are Republicans spending millions to boost democratic socialist Francesca Hong in the Democratic primary? I believe the answer is obvious.
When did getting noticed become more important than being honest or decent or right? Guessing here that the answer coincides with the rise of the hot take.
Democrat Socialists are promising Americans a better way. Free almost everything. But is it?
Cuts to home care can cost the freedom to live independently. It also costs small businesses, home care workers and family caregivers who must leave the workforce to care for family.
