If ever a time to expand healthcare coverage was imperative, the pandemic has made that clear.
Fifteen Wisconsin state legislators joined in the seditious attempt to overturn the election, signing a letter urging Vice President Mike Pence not to accept the Electoral College vote from the 50 states, including Wisconsin’s.
It is going to be a long way back for the Republican Party to sanity. To start that journey, it’s going to need more voices speaking up and saying that the post-election behavior of the Republican Party was wrong, terribly wrong.
Many have in other states. Will Wisconsin’s GOP get off the Trump crazy train?
Ten House Republicans voted Wednesday to impeach Donald Trump for incitement to insurrection. But Gallagher refused to join them.
As the leader of the insurrection, Trump should be indicted for treason, arrested, and face trial for his actions.
The WisOpinions Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, look at the performance of the Wisconsin congressional delegation following the Capitol riot and look ahead to Joe Biden’s inauguration.
In a wide-ranging conversation this week, he reflected on his Kenosha report, on his reaction to the riot in Washington, D.C., and how he sees race as central to both.
This legislation provides liability protections for schools, churches and employers, creates an Essential Visitor option for residents of nursing homes, directs improvements in the Unemployment Compensation program, creates flexibilities for hospitals to provide care and extends a number of waivers and other provisions we passed in an earlier COVID-19 relief bill.
Gov. Evers never actually laid out his opinion of the condition of Wisconsin.

The next big national project needs to be to research the vaccine that stops the Trump virus.
The Evers administration’s botched COVID-19 vaccine rollout has left Wisconsin’s third-largest county waiting for answers and some of its most vulnerable citizens pushed to the back of the vaccine line.
Like many Wisconsinites, I’m shocked, angry and saddened. But I also have faith in the resiliency of our democracy and the American people.
In wake of this tragedy, failing the president’s resignation, a swift and strong censure from Congress is the most prudent path forward.
The Grand Old Party is not so grand anymore.
In the face of monumental problems and challenges facing us in the next decades, we need good governance more than ever. What is frightening about our stark divisions is the depth of belief in fraud and conspiracy.
It will cause an even greater reduction in our already declining law enforcement numbers, lead to harassing lawsuits that could bankrupt counties and municipalities, and make cops hesitant to do their jobs effectively.
