The Chinese government heavily subsidizes its companies, allowing them to flood the US with artificially priced products. Stopping China’s playbook is key to Wisconsin manufacturing job growth.
Last fall, the Justice Department filed a $125 million lawsuit against Uber, alleging that the ride-sharing company discriminates against passengers with disabilities.
Prices across dozens of hospitals in Wisconsin were “consistently and substantially higher” than prices for the same services in Illinois, a report from a UW-Madison think tank found. The Center for Research on the Wisconsin Economy recently issued a report

David Crowley is showing major league political smarts as the Democratic nominee for the Wisconsin governorship. He has signaled a double-barreled campaign.
Nonprofit organizations are failing and will need change to succeed in helping the people they serve.
Hong and Crowley largely support the same progressive agenda that would increase public school funding, advance environmental protection, and rebuild a strong and compassionate safety net, among other aspirations. And Crowley, more than Evers, should have a better chance of success with the likelihood of a more supportive Legislature.
Now that the Aug. 11 Wisconsin primary is over, what is in the future for the Democratic gubernatorial candidates?

Most of the current regents have very little knowledge (or any interest in learning) how things work on our campuses, how they could work better, or even the educational needs of our students.
Madisonians should want to preserve human life as a priority, while also recognizing humanity includes police, especially their families. My hope is that future use of body cameras will help assist people and police with improved relationships.
Johnson increasingly acts like Joe McCarthy with fearmongering and bold-faced lies.
Here is a doctor who could have made millions in private practice, instead devoting 50-plus years to working a civil service job. Acknowledged as the man who tackled the AIDS crisis, now he’s being dragged through the political mud in his retirement years.
