The notion that we need a “colorblind” society or race neutral policies is errant. It is linear and is a passive way of telling minorities to “move on” and forget about the historic inequities that still exist in our society.
We have a classically liberal Supreme Court. In three and a half major cases this term SCOTUS’ decisions made America better.
The WDP has an impressive track record, winning almost all statewide races while losing a few by tiny margins. This is critical as Wisconsin Democratic Senator Tammy Baldwin is running for reelection in 2024.
If election were held today, Biden would win Wisconsin.
Because of inaction, you might have to get used to it.
Immigrants do make America great.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, disagree over whether the GOP budget is good for the UW System and K-12 education. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
With such a massive document, it’s easy to get lost in the details. As such, I decided to share a list of the top 10 worst things that made it into the final Republican budget.
Wisconsinites clearly got some wins in the 2023-2025 biennel budget. Now the task at hand is consolidate and expand those moving forward.
How will Evers respond?
There’s much to like in these newly enacted measures, particularly surrounding school choice. A few exceptions, but I’ll take this as a step mirroring the state motto, “Forward.”
What goes around comes around. State Senate Republicans are just learning that lesson now.
I wonder if the geniuses in the state Legislature — you know the ones who know how to run everyone’s business except their own — saw the news out of Lordstown, Ohio, this week?
That reality slapped us full in the face a couple weekends ago at the Wisconsin Republican Convention in beautiful La Crosse.
As drafted, the bill would make it harder for the state to hold PFAS polluters accountable for the damages they have caused to the environment and for the associated adverse health impacts that comes with exposure to these hazardous substances.
Decision slams door on next Barack Obama, Gwen Moore or Dr. Tito Izard.
Lowell P. Weicker was 92.
But anti-Trump sentiment is strong.
Despite this once-in-a-generation surplus, Republicans have built a budget that completely misses the mark and makes critical cuts on top priority issues, squandering a generational opportunity for the state.
The fate of BadgerCare expansion could still be different this time, but only if Gov. Evers rapidly evolves his leadership style to build more bargaining leverage, and average people continue to mobilize.
