Schools do need to be wary of legal risks, but it can be easy to put too much focus on the risk of transgender students seeking special accommodations.

Last week Fitzgerald issued a press release announcing that he has joined ranks with other House Republicans to damage the 12-year-old Consumer Finance Protection Bureau.

Along with a bipartisan group of House members that includes some of the chamber’s most progressive and most conservative members, Pocan on Thursday introduced the Audit the Pentagon Act, a proposal to require transparency and accountability in a Department of Defense budget that is growing so rapidly that it will soon pass the $1 trillion-a-year mark.

The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, consider the political future of Sarah Godlewski, who was recently appointed secretary of state by Gov. Tony Evers. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association.

His name does not adorn any building in town, but for half a century Gordon Derzon’s impact on this city has been historic.

Rewards for good teaching, wins for kids.

Simply put, it’s not a matter of “if” marijuana” will be legalized in Wisconsin but “when.” It’s time we do this in a manner that honors Wisconsin businesses, rights the past wrongs in our criminal justice system, and brings revenue back into our state that is currently flooding across our borders to neighboring states.

I hope this isn’t a back door into funding the Brewers’ stadium costs, but even if it is the good it will do for every local government in the state and the fact that it was negotiated on a bipartisan basis are reasons to cheer.

They’ve now won three of last four races by big margins. What the data shows.

No single entity has been more helpful to WILL’s success than the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Our kids are falling increasingly behind and are less equipped to be successful adults than their parents were. Despite this, Underly is choosing to spend her finite time and considerable resources bullying school districts to allow leftist teachers to use their classrooms to indoctrinate the next generation.

Litterbugs should have to clean up their messes.

Law Day is a great opportunity to promote public understanding of our legal system and the work of the courts all year round.

AB 222/SB 222, the pre-disaster flood resilience grant, will create a program that uses scientific and conservation techniques to achieve the dual purposes of restoring wetlands and reducing flooding.

In advance of the 2024 RNC, a Milwaukee convention center director decided to destroy a potentially MAGA-triggering public display of literary art.

The Bulwark condemns decision to remove artwork while WTMJ defends it.

Knowing that there is a strong even-tempered person in the White House, even if one disagrees with this or that policy, is far harder to measure but I argue vital to the success of an election than many heated partisans care to admit.
