Instead of accepting that every new census must produce winners and losers in a fixed contest for 435 seats, Congress could restore a principle that served the country for much of its existence; when the nation grows, representation should grow too.
The next few years are a great opportunity for Wisconsin to fix a broken monopoly system that isn’t serving ratepayers well. We dispute that our reforms, many of which have nothing to do with renewables, are more political than practical.
Spreitzer is a strong incumbent and likely winner who has earned another term, particularly if Democrats become the Senate majority.
Milwaukee Journal editorial writer and columnist Greg Stanford had given me something far more valuable than a job. He believed in me before I fully believed in myself.
Reforms would ensure all parents have options they clearly favor.
With continued support and investment, Wisconsin’s technical colleges will remain a place where talent is developed, futures are transformed and employers find the workforce they need to succeed.

A proposed constitutional amendment on the Nov. 3 ballot would allow “places of worship” to meet in large groups regardless of the direness of an emergency situation, the nature of a threat or whether gatherings by other organizations are prohibited. As a practicing member of a worship community, I believe that would be a grave mistake.
From education to land conservation, politicians celebrate or ignore government spending, while taxpayers pick up the tab.
To some the progressive stalwart is a hero; to others he’s a fright.
America’s future cannot be left to politicians while the rest of us watch.
If we keep on accepting the lesser of two evils, we’ll keep getting two evils.
