Governor made ‘equity’ efforts a priority for state government: So what resulted?

After leaked text messages revealed Republicans worked to disrupt Souls to the Polls’ work on election day in 2020, it’s more important than ever to stand up for democracy in Milwaukee.

Look to the south for proof that neither party can be trusted.

Too many people are acting as if this is an ordinary election year, but Joe Biden losing to Donald Trump would be apocalyptic.

Wisconsinites haven’t seen a meaningful plan of action to help Social Security in decades, and 2024 needs to be the year this changes.

California’s bridge to nowhere is a clear reminder of the high-speed rail boondoggle being pushed by liberals like President Biden.

Thanks to smart fiscal policy and a growing economy, the Legislative Fiscal Bureau estimates Wisconsin’s state government will have a surplus of $3.25 billion by the end of the current budget cycle. Following the lead of successful initiatives in other states, Wisconsin should explore allocating a portion of that surplus to create its own volunteer service corps.

At the same time that nearly 40,000 families are being reported for lacking the ability to provide basic needs and care to their children to CPS each year, we have nearly 40,000 non-profits statewide that are designed to support our children, families and communities. Somewhere there lies a disconnect that leads to these reports to CPS rather than referrals or connection to these supportive non-profits.

The short answer: Microsoft leaders, who are familiar with the state, see it as the kind of place where AI innovations in manufacturing can be put to work quickly and with a solid return on investment.

A new project after the Foxconn fiasco comes with its own questions.

But FCC proposal to ban bulk billing could seriously hinder the progress made.

Data shows a clear difference going back a century, including Biden and Trump.

If not full Hamas supporters per se, campus protesters are the useful idiots of terrorists—a zombie army of the dumbest and most gullible kids on campus spouting the vilest but most easily disproven slander imaginable.

Republican US Senate candidate Eric Hovde might want to get off the range.

The Legislative Audit Committee ordered up something we’ve been asking for here at YSDA for a long time: a comprehensive audit of diversity, equity and inclusion programs in Wisconsin state government.

Yet the Universities of Wisconsin is committed to the Republicans’ austerity agenda

The economic contrast in Wisconsin is meant to be unsubtle, but can it sell?

Three out of every four Americans believe crime is getting worse when in fact it has been declining sharply.

Tough-talking Milwaukee liberals refuse to toughen a criminal justice system that is comically lenient.

The recent signing of AB 232/SB 240 marks a momentous shift for citizens who have advocated for the acknowledgement and inclusion of Hmong and Asian-American history and culture as part of Wisconsin history.
