Summerfest boss has collected $6.56 million in five years for running tax exempt charity.

If anything underscored the points Bernie Sanders, with John Nichols, made in their recently-released book “It’s OK to be Angry About Capitalism,” it was the chaotic debate and final resolution to avoid a national economic default earlier this month.

To his faithful fans, Trump can do no wrong, even when he’s compounding errors.

Wisconsin’s balance was just more than $1.7 billion, which equated about 8.9 percent of general fund expenditures in the 2021-22 fiscal year. To reach the median percent of 11.6 percent, Wisconsin would’ve needed an additional $525 million in the fund.

The Assembly today approved 90-4 legislation to overhaul Wisconsin’s three-tiered alcohol industry and create a new Division of Alcohol Beverages within the Department of Revenue.

The Assembly 82-11 today passed a bill to allow pharmacists to prescribe birth control pills without a doctor’s approval. AB 176 now heads to the Senate for consideration.
