Tavern League, Beer Distributors push Legislature for more regulation. Wrong approach.

Public officials in Marquette County apparently know how to get the biggest bang for their buck when it comes to transportation. They have the best roads in the state, while receiving almost the smallest amount of state aid per mile, according to the DOT and the Legislative Fiscal Bureau.

The deny, delay and decay approach to transportation in Wisconsin threatens our economic prosperity. But so does an over reliance on bonding, without any plan on how to pay down that debt.

And how a fee on trucks could solve state’s transportation problem.

Walker doesn’t see drug-testing human-welfare recipients as a punitive, back-door way to deny benefits to people already down on their luck.

We each must choose to make a conscious effort to step back into the light of civility, strengthen our communication, and self-correct each time we stumble … and who better to first cross the aisle as unified partners, than our elected officials.

If we truly hope to stop these horrific acts of violence and begin to heal our deep political divides, we all need to denounce hate speech and the sharing of false or misleading information, particularly online.

We’re both deeply concerned that the political system in Wisconsin — as in so much of the country — is broken.

Baldwin is vulnerable and the very President that changed all the rules may be the key to the GOP winning this senate seat in 2018.

After all the noise in northern Georgia — and $55 million of campaign spending — only one politician really mattered in the much-watched 6th congressional race on Tuesday. Her name was Nancy Pelosi.
