The message from voters in Wisconsin’s spring election is loud and unmistakable.

The way we vote is changing and conservatives need to adapt.

Trump and his allies want to subvert Wisconsin’s vote.

His latest attempt at election bribery isn’t just self-defeating in its purported aim to make higher education more affordable; it is also a dubious political calculation.

DEI, short for diversity, equity and inclusion, has been at the forefront of the culture wars for at least three years now, its roots in the right-wing Texas Legislature where GOP lawmakers claimed the state’s universities were brainwashing faculty and students over race and social justice.

When people say Congress is broken, this failure is a poster child. Instead of taking sensible steps toward reform, immigration is just an explosive political football.

The uniparty shows remarkable resilience.

Reintroduced this year in the 118th Congress by Senators Baldwin (D-WI) and J.D. Vance (R-OH), the COOL Online Act is supposed to better educate consumers about where the products they purchase online are coming from. While I understand the idea, there are a host of problems with the bill that could hurt the economic progress made in Wisconsin and the nation since the pandemic with untenable regulations.

The recent experience in India showed me a pathway that can be replicated in the United States – and here at home in Milwaukee, if we choose to again invest in our social infrastructure so that families can live, thrive, and build a supportive community for generations to come.

Constitutional amendments serve an important purpose within our democracy; however, the Republicans who gerrymandered their way into office and pushed these amendments to a vote are weaponizing the process to enshrine anti-democratic public policy.

Governor Evers often repeats the phrase “the will of the people is the law of the land,” but last week he defied the will of an overwhelming majority of Wisconsin residents in vetoing the Saving Women’s Sports Act.

Empowering Wisconsin’s working class with working-class elected leaders.

Last week the centrist, bipartisan organization No Labels labelled its attempt to find a unity ticket a failure.

College costs are outrageous. But free loans are a figment of the imagination.

The platform of the Democratic Party can be summarized in three words: More Free Stuff. While we were distracted by the partial eclipse of the sun Monday, the President of the United States dropped out of the sky to reinforce that single truth here in Madison.

The Arizona state Supreme Court upheld a Civil War-era law that bans abortion in all cases, at any stage of pregnancy, except when it’s necessary to save the mother’s life.

Nearly 180,000 primary voters refused to vote for either. What’s does that mean for Wisconsin?

Turnout for the party primaries was roughly equivalent, with both sides drawing close to 600,000 voters. By any reasonable measure, Trump should have gotten the higher popular vote and the higher percentage of the total. But that didn’t happen. Biden won 511,845 votes, compared with 476,355 votes for Trump.

As both a former Republican member of Congress who represented Green Bay and — more central to my identity, an evangelical Christian — my plea to the former president would be to speak of and pursue policies that impact immigrants in ways guided by the Bible.

Biden’s actually proud of the fact that he has already, through all kinds of backdoor means, been able to have taxpayers — including those who never went to college or who dutifully paid back their loans — pick up $144 billion in college debt.
