With the cost of goods and services going up every year, there is no way that a municipality can keep up and in fact, many (including Washburn) have had to cut employees and programs in order to stay within levy limits.
There was a time when Wisconsin led the way for the rest of the nation.
Empower Wisconsin has reviewed more than a dozen complaints to legislative offices, and spoken to several sources dealing with DSPS. Here are some of their stories.
Less than eight months before he stands for reelection—and just seven months after he vetoed a bill that would have penalized local governments that defund their police departments—Evers has committed $50 million in federal funds to fighting crime.
As hard as it may be at times to do so, most public officials in Wisconsin recognize their responsibilities under the law to produce records or at least an explanation for why a request is being denied. Gableman and Vos simply treat these requests with contempt.
Should companies who buy ads from state broadcasters, newspapers get 50% tax credit?
The newly unified Allies know they must defeat Putin, not just neutralize him. If he wins by any definition, he will be an aggressor on surrounding countries as he seeks the spread of authoritarian rule.
So claims Journal Sentinel. But where exactly did this figure come from?
In 2019, women of every racial demographic made less than their white male counterpart.
The political problem with Evers’ maps is that he created them in the first place. The purpose of using the legislative process to create the maps is to ensure that they receive all of the scrutiny and visibility that the legislative process requires and allows.
Could stand out as the moderate in a five-candidate Republican primary.

Our Legislature, which earned the dubious distinction of being the least active full-time legislature in the nation during the height of the pandemic, chose, in the current session, to start its summer vacation on March 9.
What’s needed is not escalation, but an off-ramp to end Putin’s war of aggression and avoid the apocalypse.
Dictators, terrorists and rouge regimes are taking advantage of his weakness.
One thing is clear: the process that allows politicians to draw political maps is problematic on many levels.
African American religious women & their impact on the church.
On the K-3 sex ed issue Democrats fall back on their favorite trope: it’s all in your heads, parents. Kids that young aren’t being taught this stuff. Now, of course, if that’s the case, then what’s the harm in the bill?
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, explore what’s next for Wisconsin’s reapportionment maps approved by the state Supreme Court. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
If enacted, this bill would add up to more expensive coverage, more regulation, and more needless bureaucracy.
