New committee created to address the “crisis.”
The Wisconsin Republican’s appearance at a Juneteenth event is earning mockery. Here’s why.
A little over ten years ago, the fiscal Republican geniuses running the Wisconsin Legislature decided it was outrageous for the University of Wisconsin System to be sitting on a budget surplus.
The next MPS superintendent should have the autonomy to pave the way and be willing to shake things up, and the new board should support this person.
Learn the lessons of April: get early and absentee votes in the door, work and watch the polls…and win.
Sidewalk decision puts property owners on notice: Government can take your land despite statutory prohibitions, and pay less than market value
The Riverside Theater and Pabst Theater will sit empty during the convention, and some downtown restaurant owners worry over lack of activity, with RNC just weeks away.
When we all woke up two years ago to a country in which women had lost control over our bodily autonomy, it triggered a massive backlash.
The trick will be adopting regulations that don’t shut down legitimate needs and opportunities while keeping deepfakes, disinformation and privacy breaches at a minimum.
The Investing in America economic agenda is fueling a Small Business Boom, exceeding 18 million business applications since 2021—historically the three strongest years of new business applications under the Biden-Harris Administration — with more than 222,000 filed in Wisconsin.

Through his pioneering efforts as a class-conscious undergraduate, Emspak organized fellow University of Wisconsin-Madison student employees. Together, they forced the state to start paying students higher wages decades before other schools across the country did so.
Wisconsin has countless opportunities for our residents and visitors to take advantage of this summer.
In Wisconsin, the overturning of Roe v. Wade sent women back to live under a criminal abortion ban passed in 1849 — 70 years before women had the right to vote.
There is a disconnect between taking an oath “to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic” and trying to unlawfully overturn the 2020 presidential election.
Walker’s lieutenant governor was obviously hoping to gain Donald Trump’s endorsement in the 2022 primary, so declaring Wisconsin’s election rigged. Now less than two years later, Kleefisch is asking us to forget it all.
Universities can cash in on faculty brainpower and inventions.
