Vice President for University Relations Jeff Buhrandt in a letter to Richland County Board Chair David Turk yesterday said UW-Platteville will withdraw from the campus “after careful consideration, and despite tremendous efforts” by both UW and county leaders.
The Green Bay Correctional Institute, located in Allouez, and Waupun Correctional Institution are the state’s two oldest prisons, both dating to the 1800s.
GOP state Rep. Janel Brandtjen suggested the Ethics Commission wanted to tarnish her reputation ahead of the fall election when it asked a local DA to charge her with a felony for an alleged scheme to funnel contributions to a man challenging Assembly Speaker Robin Vos.
Vice President Kamala Harris urged Dem activists to remind voters that Donald Trump said he was proud of his role in the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, declaring it could make a difference in who wins this fall.
“The president has said very clearly that we need to codify Roe v. Wade, and we see that when you allow states to do whatever they want, I mean look at what’s happening in Arizona,” Tom Perez said on WISN’s “UpFront,” which is produced in partnership with WisPolitics.
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss oral arguments before the Supreme Court in Gov. Tony Evers’ lawsuit over legislative authority, a GOP lawsuit challenging an Evers veto related to funding literacy programs, results of the Marquette University Law School poll and more.
Evers made the comments as he knocked Republicans for not attending the special meeting of the Joint Finance Committee he requested to approve the $125 million set aside in the budget to fight PFAS contamination and $15 million to address hospital closures in western Wisconsin.
Candidates’ unitemized donations — those from donors who have given $200 or less — are often seen as a sign of the success of their small-dollar operations. Hovde reported $159,468 in such contributions between his launch Feb. 21 and March 31, or just less than 1.7% of what he raised from individuals. By comparison, unitemized donations make up 35.7% of the more than $4.4 million that Baldwin raised from individuals.
“If you go too far into the MAGA space, you could open the door for a competent Democrat to once again really challenge in that district,” Ribble said. “I do not think Roger should get out of the race. I don’t think Andre should get out of the race. It’s far too soon, and they should go ahead and make their case.”
Casey replaces Peter Barca, who left the post last week as he considers a run for the 1st CD. Casey served as deputy secretary from 2019-22 and now works as the principal industry expert in tax compliance and fraud for SAS Institute in Cary, N.C.
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss Justice Ann Walsh Bradley’s decision not to seek reelection, the Wisconsin Elections Commission rejecting the initial recall attempt against Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, who’s in and who’s out in legislative races, Gov. Tony Evers’ recent actions on a series of bills and President Joe Biden’s visit to Madison.
It came weeks after the state Supreme Court ruled the lines in place for the 2022 elections were unconstitutional and barred their further use. Before the first petitions were filed, Gov. Tony Evers signed new maps that moved Vos from the 63rd AD that he was elected to in 2022 to the 33rd.
State Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley announced she won’t seek reelection next year, a decision that could make it more challenging for liberals to maintain the majority they won just a year ago.
The recommendation comes on the heels of the state Supreme Court declining to say which maps should be applied to the recall effort — the ones used in the 2022 election that the liberal majority found to be unconstitutional or the lines approved by Gov. Tony Evers in February. The bill Evers signed included a provision saying the new maps don’t take effect until this fall.
It is the second time Evers, who has repeatedly vowed to veto the PFAS bill, has called a special meeting of the budget committee. GOP members ignored the call in December 2019 and refused to attend as he pushed them to address homelessness. JFC Co-Chairs Sen. Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, and Rep. Mark Born, R-Beaver Dam, called the guv’s latest move “phony.”
President Joe Biden in Madison touted his plan to provide student debt relief to more than 30 million Americans, saying it would help ensure Americans don’t have to put their lives on hold to pay off their school loans.
“As we get closer to November, I think Democrats all across the country and in Wisconsin will understand that President Joe Biden is the person to do the job. And when we’re thinking about the issues facing Gaza and within Israel, at the end of the day we know that Joe Biden’s going to be the guy who’s going to lead us to where we need to go,” Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley said.
On this week’s episode of WisconsinEye’s “Rewind,” WisPolitics’s JR Ross and CBS 58’s Emilee Fannon discuss Tuesday’s election results, former President Donald Trump’s visit to Green Bay, the U.S. Senate race and more.
Evers has vowed to veto SB 312 over provisions limiting DNR authority to regulate the forever chemicals, which he has argued would benefit polluters. The Dem guv has instead called for the GOP-run Joint Finance Committee to release the $125 million set aside in the state budget and use it to fund an alternate proposal that eliminates those provisions.
