In Madison in the next two weeks we will raise our voices together about the perils of nuclear war and the war in Ukraine.

Support in the Senate is unclear; Gov. Evers is opposed.
McCain was a forceful critic of gerrymandering, especially in Wisconsin.
The Assembly and Senate both held floor sessions on Tuesday and Thursday. Issues included redistricting, the governor’s veto authority, and agency appointments. The situation is even more explosive now that liberals have a majority on the State Supreme Court.
There is no other such honor for an African-American woman on any state house in the nation, other than Rosa Parks, at the U.S. Capitol.
The over $1 billion in Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment funds coming to Wisconsin presents the historic opportunity to finally connect every corner of the state, including communities tucked into the most rural, hardest-to-reach regions.
