Victor Fuchs, who was a Stanford University economist, is credited with awakening Americans to the inefficiencies of its health care system, if indeed you can still call it that.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, detail the legislative debate over how to use the state’s projected $4 billion budget surplus, from tax cuts to funding child care and schools. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
Energy costs are too high. From heating your home to filling up your car, you are paying too much. Unfortunately, the Biden administration’s anti-energy policies have driven costs even higher. I am working to lower costs for you and your family with an all-of-the-above energy approach.
No surprise that both Republicans who were willing to overturn the 2020 election results on Jan. 6, 2021 — bowing to their lying pal Donald Trump — joined the Matt Gaetz crowd last week in efforts to shut down the government.
In Washington and Wisconsin, things are going downhill.
Some House Republicans want the former president to be their new boss. There are just two problems with this plan: It’s crazy, and it’s not allowed.
I can recommend Klug’s podcasts as thought-provoking. But I can’t abide the false equivalency.
Conservatives feel isolated and intimidated on college campuses. New University of Chicago and Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research polling shows only 9% of respondents think conservatives can speak freely about their beliefs.
The assertion of tribal sovereignty, combined with building alliances with the non-Native communities in the watersheds at risk from ecologically destructive mining projects has proven to be an effective strategy.
Wisconsin left standing still.
Brandon Maly is focused on reengaging conservative suburban voters on the outskirts of Madison.
While recalling history and understanding it is most important, the visual and social relationship to our past must be connected to the times in which we live.
I don’t have any kids in Iron River, either. But plenty of folks do. And as we come to the end of Banned Books Week in America, it’s up to them to stand up to a bunch of grumpy old men and women and demand that thoughts and ideas be allowed to flow freely at the library.
Wisconsin Republicans’ plan did not provide political proportionality.
I had a chance to sit down with Kevin McCarthy a few months after the last speaker debacle. Oh not that Kevin McCarthy. My conversation was with a Winnebago Co., Ill., board member whose real job is as a morning DJ. A loyal Republican, he was flummoxed watching the January carnival show playing out on national TV.
Most are poorer than average members of Congress. Then there’s Ron Johnson.
It’s time to burn a persistent political myth hyped by the political universe.
John Kelly, retired top Marine general and chief of staff for former President Trump, went on the record last week to confirm that Trump categorized the 1800 Marines killed in the June 1919 Battle of Belleau Wood as “suckers.”
The consequences of not passing a farm bill or extension are far too great with the ripple effects moving from farm to fork.
Insulin is not an optional medication. People in Wisconsin worry every day about being able to access and afford the insulin they need to live.
