To mark June Dairy month, our lawmakers should listen to farmers, level the playing field, and include elements from the MFDA into the Farm Bill.
Since June is National Dairy Month, I want to highlight just three bills I authored or supported in an effort to provide some help for our dairy farmers, processors, and retailers this past session – and the status of the bills.
Your vote helps shape the future for your family, your community and our state and nation. No matter how hectic life gets, we cannot afford to let others make our choices for us at the ballot box.
When I speak of living abundantly, I do not speak solely of material wealth or personal comfort. I speak of equity. I speak of justice. I speak of a world where every child, regardless of the color of their skin, can exhale freely without first calculating the cost of their own existence.
Advancements in investigative and analytical technology are transforming how quickly law enforcement and prosecutors can build strong, evidence-based cases.
Trump’s coal power investments, including modernization of Wisconsin’s Columbia Energy Center, deliver reliable, affordable baseload electricity, thousands of jobs, and grid stability against unreliable renewables.
Ignore the spin by Trump’s MAGA supporters. This war with Iran is a failure.
Wisconsin has a far better option than Tiffany: Democratic gubernatorial candidate Sara Rodriguez.
The bottom line as of post-convention time: Rodriguez may have reestablished herself as the frontrunner, but don’t count out Hong. And in November do not count out Tiffany.
The problem for Fox and Republicans like Steil is that many of these policies are quite popular in Wisconsin.
In the face of consolidations in the pursuit of market power and higher prices, leading to decades of unrelenting price hyper-inflation, our political leaders have to step back and entertain a fundamental structural upheaval. What would Teddy Roosevelt, the legendary trust-buster, do?
Menominee County’s unusual Democrat tilt
This Juneteenth, celebrate. But also remember those who made the sacrifices that made the celebration possible. Remember that the struggle for freedom did not end in 1865; it continues in 2026.
If MPS is serious about getting its finances under control, it will have to do much more than ask for more money.
While patterns are complex, China’s investment in South Korea grows, while North Korea remains a costly dependent of Beijing.

The geographic gravity may seem to favor Tiffany in the 7th Congressional District, with its sprawling acreage and culturally conservative voting base. But to actually win, he must pull significant numbers from the Milwaukee–Madison corridor. The area that will decide his fate in November.
Plus: In an “informed” vote poll where candidate biographies are shared, Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez leads the field with 33%.
Advice for Democrats. Stop posting about fish, talking about fish, and holding fish on camera if you don’t really know anything about fish and never fish. Gov. Tony Evers notoriously posed for the cameras once holding a fish so tightly that he looked like he was squishing its middle like a tube of Crest toothpaste.
Dismantling this law would not be a simple policy tweak; it would be an absolute fiscal disaster for property taxpayers, public services, and the long-term stability of our communities.
