Nearly 20,000 Americans were killed by gun violence in 2020 — more than any other year in decades. This dangerous trend continues in 2021.
DNR Deputy Secretary Todd Ambs earlier this month said only 10 percent of agency employees were reporting to the office to work. The vast majority still are working remotely.
The 1619 Project opened a window into American history that some would prefer we not peak into.
Republicans charge taxpayers for private attorneys to defend secret legislative scheme before it’s even been created.
Republicans are doing everything they can to keep power by undermining the democratic foundation upon which our nation rests.
City leaders are astonished that after 5 decades of work the final touches are coming into place to make the downtown river and its banks a hub of recreational life.
China’s actions mean that it doesn’t matter what the West does to de-coal and decarbonize — worldwide emissions are going up, regardless of how we feel about it. We may as well accept the inevitable and prepare for it.
In the US, the law in many states does not currently afford protection for race-based hair discrimination, even if the hairstyle is inherent to racial identity.
Last week, Foxconn fell to “player-to-be-named-later” status when the administration of Democratic Gov. Tony Evers promised it up to $80 million if it hit new reality-based performance numbers—$672 million invested and 1,454 workers hired.
While not headline-grabbing, Gov. Tony Evers’ proposed state budget creates a structural deficit of over $1 billion. If enacted, Evers’ budget almost certainly would require the next budget to enact drastic tax increases or massive cuts in public services such as medical assistance or K-12 education.
The governor has proposed $59 million to upgrade Whitewater’s Winther Hall, which is home to classes for aspiring teachers. UW-Whitewater graduates more future teachers than any other college in Wisconsin, public or private.
The new left’s intersectionality, gender theory and other woke nonsense excuses and supports imperialism resulting in an old fashioned corporate economic pillage while condoning killing of other (mostly poor) people in their (mostly poor) countries.
A storm of interesting progressives are mounting on the Democratic side, making the primary on August 9, 2022, the real election.
The Trump ilk are mad that Justice Hagedorn applied the facts, or lack thereof, to the law, which is what every other court in the United States did when Trump attempted to usurp the election results.
Federal court rejects MacIver Institute’s demand for access to governors’s press briefings.
President creates a commission to expand the court.
President Biden, drawing on his long experience, has come to the right conclusion.
But real progress will require specific policy changes.
As we celebrate Earth Day, we must remember that we have to create technology and advancements that are both inclusive and accessible to everyone.
