A 167-year-old statute requires trans people to publish their old and new names in a newspaper, worrying families and advocates as President Donald Trump attacks transgender rights.

‘At this moment, when everyone feels so hopeless … we can do something.’
When I read the letters I received from Senator Tammy Baldwin following my contacts with her office, it really struck me that each topic was of substantial weight, and any one of the issues if not handled properly could resign our nation to great loss both in terms of Constitutional safeguards, economic strength, and in one case, great harm to members of our military.

Let’s work together to ensure every Wisconsin high school graduate—especially those from low-income families—has the opportunity to choose the best higher education path to support their dreams and our state’s future. Doubling the Wisconsin Grant is an investment in our students, our workforce, and Wisconsin’s prosperity.
Tariffs could make America and Wisconsin great again. Or not. Whether they are constitutional in their current iteration is another question entirely.
