In the Restorative Justice program, a small group of selected prisoners go through an 11-week program learning about themselves, about the impact of crimes on victims, about how the justice system works (or doesn’t work), and about what life can be like on the outside.
The problem with the American Creed is that it’s different for everyone. Both the Left and the Right can rightfully claim that the American Promise can only be kept by implementing their respective political programs. But the Declaration was never meant to establish a Creed. So how should Americans understand it
Parents in Madison have a built-in history lesson every time they take the kids out for a bike ride.
The issue was not whether federal property should be protected. It should be. The issue was why Trump showed mercy toward people connected to one of the most serious attacks on American democratic institutions in modern history, while he treated alleged interference with a failed pool liner as a public criminal threat worthy of escalation.
Anti-tech sentiment ignoring staggering job and revenue projections
Wisconsin is a state that fixes things. It’s time our federal laws reflected that.
The Act updates the state’s technical education grant program, allowing school districts to use grant funding for the construction, renovation, or improvement of training facilities, the purchase of industry-standard tools and equipment, and the acquisition of software and instructional materials needed to prepare students for careers in these high-demand fields.
Will all the coverage help or hurt Democratic governor candidate? And beware a new poll.
I will not let the current challenges to our country posed by the president and his followers deter me from my belief that greatness is still ahead for our country.
Despite the challenges our nation faces today, the American Dream remains real for those willing to pursue it. But it is not automatic. It belongs to those who are willing to prepare for it, work for it, and build it.

Egged on by a cabal of right-wing sycophants and enablers, including the Heritage Foundation, he has accused the museum’s leadership of being “woke,” of degrading American accomplishments, of focusing on the negative instead of the positive. In other words, it wasn’t telling the MAGA version of U.S. history.
Partisanship is particularly ugly when people have suffered loss.
What Democrats need is a candidate who will push back and fight for a policy to help all the people of the state, not the top 1%.
This is, after all, the state that gave the nation’s most prominent democratic socialist, Sen. Bernie Sanders, almost 57% of the vote in the 2016 Democratic presidential primary.
Her ideologies are terrifying, and here’s what the media aren’t telling you.
It looks like we have the most convincing evidence to date that Sara Rodriguez is the front runner for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination.

It is a fundamental animating idea of the republic that people should be free to work, build, hire, save, invest, trade and make their own economic choices without unnecessary interference from government.
Legislative Democrats will tell you the blame falls solely and directly at the feet of their Republican counterparts – myself included. However, that claim is nothing more than a disingenuous display of blatant political theater.
While imperfect, Wisconsin’s regulatory processes have allowed utilities to provide safe, reliable and affordable energy for decades. Those who propose to throw it overboard for a different system must be willing to explain how the lights will stay on, in heat or cold.
