Outdated Wisconsin law hampers electric automaker’s direct-sales business model.
Federal court rejects his group’s challenge of non-partisan redistricting in Michigan.
Virus is under control until it isn’t.
We need to find ways to reopen our schools come the fall so the learning and socialization of youngsters can again be a part of their daily lives. We simply do not have the capability to educate students via long-distance learning in an equitable manner.

The jury is already in for many, many companies, and they have laid off or furloughed their work forces in unprecedented numbers.
La Follette Progressives and Milwaukee Socialists championed public health and boldly battled the 1918 influenza pandemic.
Humanitarianism aside, does Trump not recognize the global danger from inept handling of this crisis in under-resourced countries?
Using government to help Americans have a better life isn’t in the Trump playbook.
New generation of young Milwaukee leaders, Crowley, Nicholson, Johnson, all raised in state’s poorest ZIP code.
Rosenberg joined Wedge Issues host and Cap Times opinion editor Jessie Opoien to discuss her campaign, her plans for the city, what she loves about Wausau and, of course, the tweet.
