Wisconsin continues to rise through the ranks for agricultural exports and now sits just outside the top 10 states at 11th place. This is up from when our state ranked 13th in the nation in 2021.
The delivery firms do pay gas taxes, of course, but as those vehicles become more fuel efficient and some switch to electric vehicles, gas taxes are falling woefully short of paying the bills. Not surprisingly, some states are exploring ways to recoup some of the lost revenues.
The necessary hypocrisy of living in late-stage capitalism while trying to build a better future.
Kamala Harris could appeal to voters who were not excited by Biden.
I’m a conservative who is dedicated to the idea of American exceptionalism and American leadership. That is precisely why I can’t vote for Donald Trump again. If you share my belief, I want you to know you’re not alone.
We can cool down the current political environment that has been running at an all-time high in this country if we choose love over hate. But it takes all of us.
The economic and substantive crater of the RNC.
We need to protect college students from being forced to allow athletes who were born male to compete against women.
With the right approach, we can ensure that AI unlocks human potential without undermining the very things that make us human.
Wisconsin’s major utility companies announced that they will only use union labor moving forward for construction and maintenance of renewable energy projects, which will have an inflationary impact on electricity costs.
Rulemaking for the men and women who work hard and too often do not have union protections that can improve their pay or health concerns on the job then becomes our responsibility as fellow citizens. That is how a humane society works together.
The assassination of President John F. Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas opened a decade of turbulence. The remarkable stability of the Eisenhower 1950s had ended. One result was the unexpected announcement by President Lyndon B. Johnson not to seek reelection to the White House. This is a precedent for Biden’s decision, contrary to some comments that his action is “unprecedented.”
So firm a grip do these tyrants have that even the President they forced out is claiming that a vote against their hand-picked successor is a vote against the democratic process itself. The truth is that there is no greater threat to democracy than a party that refuses to let even its own voters have any say in its elections.
Democrats have an institutional advantage in the election, but we can—shall—overcome.
The national news media used the term over and over again at the RNC in Milwaukee … Usually, when you’re trying to win someone over, common practice is not to address them with an insult. Democrats could do themselves a lot of good if they went on a rant against “Rust Belt” and started off by better understanding who we really are and where we really live.
The folks in Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin should be proud of the job they did in hosting the RNC. Let’s hope the momentum and unity cemented at the convention carry through to a November victory, regardless of who’s on the other side.
Destinations Career Academy of Wisconsin, a tuition-free virtual school serving students across the state, is committed to providing students with learning opportunities that meet them where they are and set them up for success after graduation.
Incumbent Democratic faces heavy opposition from his own party backing challenger Jarrod Anderson.
If we give new constitutional powers to a group of legislators who have not demonstrated the will to work, to govern together, or to work with the other branches of government, we can expect even more dysfunction and red tape.
The state of Wisconsin is sitting on a comfortable budget surplus of between $3 and $4 billion, yet a huge number of its cities, villages and towns are facing unprecedented deficits.
