I urge Wisconsin Republicans to use their voices to put their representatives on notice and in check; if we are ever to see an end to this pandemic and its gruesome economic effects, your leaders need to get on board.
What’s concerning to me and many of my constituents is that the Vaccine Distribution Subcommittee recommended that incarcerated individuals should be next in line for their vaccinations. This choice means the Evers administration would prioritize prisoners, 68% of whom committed violent crimes, to be vaccinated likely before their victims.
David Leonhardt of the New York Times just reported that the vaccines now on the market or coming to market are even better than expected.
Two southeast Wisconsin lawmakers are urging Milwaukee area school districts to actually follow the science and return to in-person education.
Assembly Speaker has toured the plant and Foxconn is definitely, probably manufacturing… something.
Late last year, We Energies’ $15 million-a-year executive Gale Klappa announced that the older coal burning plant in Oak Creek would be retired in 2024. This decision is hardly cause for celebration. This plant should be shut down immediately. It is unnecessary.
In his new capacity as a professional right-winger, Walker is leading the charge to force public schools to reopen for in-person learning even as the coronavirus pandemic remains a threat to health and safety — and as new variants suggest the threat could surge anew.
American Carnage chronicles the rise of populism and tribalism within the Republican Party and the “Republican Civil War,” as author Tim Alberta describes it, that he asserts has been brewing for a decade.
Alex Lasry, who is young and reportedly healthy, has dropped $20,000 on the Evers’ campaign fund thus far, according to campaign finance records.

Assembly Speaker Robin Vos should reconsider the human toll from ending universal masking, especially with increasingly contagious virus variants.
Total deaths and total new cases both rose precipitously in the months immediately following Governor Evers’ order, and even taking the normal seasonal spike in fall out of the equation, it appears that Wisconsin may have actually been battling COVID-19 more effectively before the mandate went into effect.
While health and Milwaukee leaders blame each other, they seem to agree that the glacial pace of getting shots into arms begins at the top — Gov. Tony Evers and his administration’s many failures in moving the life-saving vaccines.
They’d rather be beholden to a narcissistic and fascist politician than the Constitution of the United States.
Far-right congressman from northern Wisconsin opposes Native American secretary of interior.
With better-than-expected revenues on the horizon, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, consider budget options for Gov. Tony Evers.
Occurring the same week, the departures of the Washington Post’s Marty Baron and the Idaho Statesman’s Christina Lords provide a window into the strengths and more numerous weaknesses of newspaper journalism in 2021.
U.S. Rep. Mark Pocan joined the Thompson Center on Public Leadership to discuss upcoming congressional priorities and opportunities for bipartisan consensus.
