There was an obvious statewide solution to the enrollment challenge at all of the state’s two-year colleges, including its 16 technical colleges. A Washington County task force proposed a consolidation of the two-year liberal arts and technical colleges.
At 17 weeks pregnant, I learned that my baby had a rare chromosomal abnormality. If she survived to term, she would have mere hours to live and would only suffer. The diagnosis also meant carrying the pregnancy to term would put my health and fertility at risk.
Biden’s got trouble in 2024: President Biden is in trouble. Recent polls in Georgia and Michigan show the current president down to former President Donald Trump in a head-to-head matchup this November.

It may seem like there’s little to cheer, but these leaders and activists can show us how to keep fighting the good fight in what promises to be a challenging 2024.
Wisconsin Democrats may be overplaying their hand on redistricting. Twice in the last few months Republicans have handed them what they’ve wanted and they turned them down in both cases.
But if legislative district maps need to be redrawn, so too do Wisconsin’s congressional district maps. Indeed, the congressional redraw is more urgent than the legislative fix.
Wisconsin’s Parental Choice Program, expanded statewide in 2013 after starting over 30 years ago in Milwaukee as the first program of its kind nationwide, has been a beacon of light for thousands who seek relief from the progressive mantra and control of the public school system.
Taxpayers should refuse to support any Right of First Refusal law or any politician who introduces one. If they don’t believe in competition for utility companies, maybe it’s time they face some competition in primary races to remind them who in Wisconsin they actually serve.
On Jan. 22, we should have been be celebrating the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court’s landmark decision protecting a woman’s constitutional right to choose. Instead, we are mourning the loss of 50 years of hard-fought progress and a right that was once fundamental to every American.
It is imperative that the LCR, in its newest form, provides a comprehensive plan on how cities should inform communities about lead in water, the importance of prompt and full lead service line replacement, and effective precautions through the installation lead-certified point-of-use filters.
Its rejection of affordable housing brings back ghosts of the past.
Upon taking office last January, we were immediately faced with the fallout from a 2022 federal court decision which ruled property owned by tribal members on certain tribal lands is not taxable regardless of ownership changes.
So God made a farmer. Dead ends and debt traps made a farmer’s son leave. If I’d stayed, America would have had a soft spot in her heart for me, as she did for that neighbor of mine, who became another statistic in another story of rural heartbreak.
Our immigration system is profoundly broken, and we are seeing the worst border crisis on record in U.S. Customs and Border Patrol history.
The leftist-controlled Wisconsin Supreme Court is continuing its rampage to strip Wisconsinites of self-governance and reshape the state to their will.
Likely remap of state legislative districts will give Democrats control of all of state government.
New maps submissions would create far more competitive elections than maps that were just thrown out.
It’s been one of the most blatant examples of untethered partisanship in the state’s political history, exceeded only by LeMahieu’s party using a lame-duck session of the Legislature to place limits on the governor’s powers after Evers beat Scott Walker in the 2018 election.
National School Choice Week is a time for advocacy to ensure that all children across the country have the opportunity to succeed.
