I want the UW System to thrive, but that won’t happen by enabling waste and unchecked expansion. Taxpayers deserve universities that educate — not embolden, not enrich, and certainly not excuse administrative excess. It’s time UW earned back our trust.
You can always tell when the state Legislature is about to attempt something nefarious or otherwise injurious to the state’s residents by the pace of their activity.
The Public Service Commission’s approval of two new We Energies natural gas plants wasn’t just a policy decision. It was a moral failure of leadership, imagination and public duty.
Wisconsin has a rich history of celebrating Juneteenth with various events, parades, community gatherings, and educational programs.
Women in positions of power, like Minnesota State Rep. Melissa Hortman, are especially affected. They are more likely to receive threats than men.
U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden seized on the double murder of Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, who were shot dead in their home, and the near-fatal shootings of state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife Yvette, to mock Democrats and try to score political points.
The more mobs scream, the more Americans tune them out.
Democrats, partisan media and other critics of Trump are raising the spectre of diversion of our military from their proper constitutional roles, and even possible military dictatorship. That is an exaggeration, at least for the moment.
But part should be jettisoned, and we need to keep working toward flat tax.
At a time of missile launches in the Middle East, grinding war in Ukraine, political assassination in Minnesota and a potentially crushing national debt hanging over the economy, it’s a relief to visit a place where people gather for lunch, sing a patriotic song and recite the Pledge of Allegiance. All at the world’s biggest Culver’s restaurant, no less.
As Wisconsin lawmakers debate competing approaches to restricting foreign ownership of land, a new study finds similar bills elsewhere are more likely in states with Republican legislative majorities, military installations and more foreign-owned cropland.
Wisconsin residents’ debt-to-income ratio was 11th lowest among U.S. states in 2024, a new Forward Analytics report shows. The research organization, part of the Wisconsin Counties Association, yesterday issued its “Badgers on a Budget” report, which explores household finance trends
Manufacturing and construction employment in Wisconsin is projected to shrink this year as the state’s overall labor market “continues to grow at a modest but steady rate.” That’s according to the state Department of Revenue’s economic forecast for May, which
Evers and the Republican legislative majority failed to find common ground on a budget.
The Republican majority on the Legislature’s Joint Finance Committee voted last week against fully funding the state’s payments for municipal services, which are designed to reimburse cities for the costs of providing police, fire and other essential services to tax-exempt state properties.
Let me be clear, without continued state support, Wisconsin families, employers, and businesses will be left in the same sinking boat — without access to quality, reliable, affordable child care.
Rebecca Bradley probably won’t run for re-election because things seem hopeless.
His stop and start on ICE raids affects restaurants, dairy industry, hotels and more.
Republicans might require able-bodied, childless adults to get a part-time job to qualify for Medicaid. They might also end a four-year-old Obamacare subsidy program. Not if Democrats have anything to say about it!
Hardly a day goes by that we don’t learn of another cruel and uncaring action by the Donald Trump administration.
