Time and again, the Legislature has insisted that Lincoln Hills be closed. When presented with viable plans, not half-baked ones from left field, the Legislature has funded them.
After 87 years, all new county employees will become part of state system.
Since 1990, the National Black Catholic Clergy Conference has designated the month of November as Black Catholic History Month, to honor the contributions of the many men and women of African descent who were dedicated to the Catholic faith.
For years Republican legislators froze out Democrats. Fair maps should change that.
We urge Underly, Evers and our representatives at the Capitol to put aside partisan bickering and support implementation of ACT 20 reading reforms. This pivot in how we teach reading is long overdue.
Without support from lawmakers, Wisconsin hospitals will face financial strain that threatens the stability and availability of health care.
New research quantifies states’ regulations and puts a number on the harm.
If Democrats fight for rural Wisconsinites on trade, higher education and health care it will help Wisconsin become more equitable and prosperous.
They remembered Reagan and gave us Trump.
The idea that a sitting U.S. president is shielded from both civil and criminal prosecution while in office is absurd.
If the former leader of the nation can get away with crimes, why should someone who has never held office be the tool of the political opposition as Hunter Biden has been for many years? Or face jail time only because he has the wrong last name?
Melissa Agard was elected this fall as the sixth executive in county history.
Milwaukee needs big ideas and a big vision to reclaim more lakefront for the betterment of the people.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, look ahead to Wisconsin’s spring Supreme Court election, where former AG Brad Schimel hopes to counter the court’s liberal trend. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
If legislators really want to give Wisconsin taxpayers relief, adequately funding the state’s schools would go a long way to do just that.
Conservative and liberal justices and governors have used power in crazy ways.
For the first time in more than a decade, we had a real election for the state Legislature.
The pro-abortion vote didn’t kill the GOP’s surge; it masked an emerging conservative majority that resoundingly reaffirmed the United States constitution and equally rejected the government’s ongoing contravention of fundamental liberties.
I think the reelection of Trump is a disaster. But not an unmitigated one. If it shoves Guilty White Liberals to the background and it forces my party to see people as the individuals that they truly are, that would be a great thing.
Despite our habits of complaining, Americans are fortunate indeed.
