Both the left and the right have been lamenting the fact that Big Business has been granted a number of “subsidies” in the form of tax exemptions and tax credits. But are they really subsidies?
Findings from the first phase of the Dairy Soil & Water Regeneration project highlighted the direct benefits of sustainable land management on commercial dairy forage fields, according to a Mid-West Farm Report story.
A back-to-basics approach to learning: ‘The Digital Delusion’ reveals how students learn best, and it’s not through high-tech AI in classrooms.
The words we use to describe people who cross borders are not neutral. In Milwaukee, where immigrant labor constructed the breweries, tanneries, and foundries that built the city, the vocabulary of migration still sorts people by race and origin long after they arrive.
If we are serious about affordability, we must take a more balanced approach, one that prioritizes reliability, phases in new technologies responsibly, and stops forcing families to pay twice for the same electricity system.
Change the law so that custodians can charge location costs only if the records are produced within a strict deadline — perhaps 10 business days.
The slow-moving, inconvenient, expensive Madison-to-Milwaukee train idea is back.
Like Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and California U.S. Rep. Ro Khanna at the federal level, she’s taking the AI debate seriously.
The bottom line is that it’s way too early to declare this a big victory for Republicans or even to claim with much confidence that it will reduce the number of Black representatives. And, if it makes us consider voters as individuals with a simple right to vote, rather than as faceless members of a bloc that votes all the same, so much the better.

People can find points of connection in the stories of others, even if they’re of a different political party, race, religion, or sexual orientation. Listening is the key to building relationships.
A doctor friend of mine predicted this would happen 10 years ago: Measles is back.
Even as earlier concerns around AI in healthcare are being addressed, new issues are popping up for the quickly evolving technology. That’s one conclusion from yesterday’s WisPolitics-State Affairs and Wisconsin Technology Council event at the Medical College of Wisconsin. The
An all‑the‑above strategy that includes renewables is the responsible path forward and positions our state to succeed for decades to come.
How and why ACA marketplace rates rose so high in Wisconsin and the nation.
At its core, direct primary care offers a simpler way to deliver primary care. Patients pay a predictable monthly fee for access to most primary care services, bypassing insurance billing, copays, and administrative complexity. That simplicity is proving to be a powerful tool for patients, clinicians, and communities.
Will they maintain the Wisconsin Republican tradition of putting voting rights ahead of partisanship?
The growing number of behavior issues in the classroom and Individualized Education Plans are putting pressure on Wisconsin schools and teachers.
The racial wealth gap did not happen by accident. It was built — policy by policy, denial by denial, generation by generation. And while we cannot undo history overnight … Knowledge is power. And so is money. Let’s get both.
Every municipal leader considering surveillance technology must ask themselves, “Who controls our data?” These questions must be discussed in the open with public input, even — and especially — if sometimes it feels like the plot of a science fiction novel.
Warm recollections from friends and fellow conservationists about the former Secretary of Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources and Executive Director of the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation
