Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts unleashed a firestorm last month when he dismissed the court’s plunge in public opinion polls as nothing more than sour grapes, as the New York Times put it, by those who were on the losing end of its rulings.
Gubernatorial candidates will square off Friday night in their only debate.
Four years ago, then-gubernatorial candidate Tony Evers made the halving of Wisconsin’s prison a central part of his campaign.
Warren Harding’s words about character still echo.
Michels and his allies are attacking Evers for issuing pardons. Instead of being defensive, the governor should point out that a substantial portion of the pardons he issued were for marijuana offenses.
The ballot initiative allows the people to exercise their 10th Amendment powers.
But only if campaigns stop devaluing young voters.
Supporters of school choice, including our Coalition, simply want parents to have the right to decide what is best for their own children – whether that be one of Wisconsin’s many excellent traditional public schools, a public charter school, or a school that participates in one of the state’s parental choice programs.
A few quick thoughts on Friday night’s Senate candidates’ debate between Mandela Barnes and Ron Johnson.
The flurry of one-minute answers during Friday night’s U.S. Senate candidate debate are unlikely to change many voters’ minds.
A sticking point surrounds who technically owns some of this debt and who would stand to lose money.
We need another round of direct relief payments. Wisconsin can afford it — our state has an unprecedented budget surplus projected to be around $5 billion.
The Western allies have a foot on Putin’s neck. President Biden and our Congress must finish the military confrontation. It is only then that some kind of peaceful outcome is possible.
The nonpartisan American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network released a new poll showing widespread support for expansion of BadgerCare, Wisconsin’s Medicaid program.
Stating the facts about Johnson’s long record of threatening Social Security is not a “scare tactic.”
His no-nonsense practical style, likely borne from decades in the private-sector business world where the objective is simply to get the job done, gets rave reviews from supporters, and sends detractors into a Donald Trump-derangement-syndrome kind of frenzy.
In Wisconsin, access to abortion is threatened by a pre-Roe ban that dates back to 1849.
Do choosy tax delinquents choose Jif?
Biden’s executive mandate on marijuana offers hope.
That fairer structure has demonstrably driven growth in other states for years.
