DWD’s dysfunctional Unemployment Insurance division may be of little help to thousands of displaced Wisconsin workers running out of money and hope, but at least there’s a place frustrated filers can go to vent.
We need to tell the truth and be honest about the inequities that continue to exist for African Americans in our country. Floyd’s death has put everything on the table: police and corrections reform, education restructuring, access to employment and livable wages, housing and healthcare.
What justification can there possibly be for flying the flag of an army that sought to destroy our nation in order to continue human enslavement?
Marsy’s Law, the recently passed constitutional amendment to strengthen crime victim rights in Wisconsin, was endorsed by 145 chiefs of police, 57 county sheriffs, and the state’s most prominent law enforcement associations. But how will the law be applied to victims of police brutality?
They’re definitely up since state Supreme Court ruling, and a faster rate than the nation.
Time to face reality and expand Medicaid. Circumstances have changed.
Is the U.S. ready to have an honest talk with itself?
If Wisconsin wants to make lasting and impactful reforms to policing and ensure that it is always and only oriented toward public safety, the state should consider extending Act 10 to police unions.
Milwaukee Police aren’t using bullets and billy clubs on protesters. But that’a low bar by which to measure improvement.
If ever there were a time when the university needed a firm hand on the wheel, this is it. The country and Wisconsin are facing a triple whammy: the virus pandemic, an economic collapse of historic proportions, and social unrest that is sweeping the nation. As a result, the university is also in a tailspin.
It was just another absurdity among the many that Trump commits virtually every day he’s in office, all aimed at not doing what’s right to help the people of the country he’s supposed to be serving, but at serving his political ambitions.
Robin Vos and Scott Fitzgerald are aghast at Gov. Tony Evers’ “secret” recording of their conversation. Evers should have disclosed it, but Vos and Fitzgerald have done a lot worse.
Gov. Tony Evers and his staff pledged to keep Badger State businesses open during the first waves of the COVID-19 outbreak. They went back on that promise within days, history shows.
What you have accomplished during this unprecedented time in our nation’s history is nothing short of miraculous.
After days of protest in Wisconsin following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, suggest big changes as a result.
Should Wisconsin cities and counties divert budget money from traditional law enforcement efforts to social and mental health workers and programs?
We have seen decades and centuries of this violence because racism is a part of the institutions, structures, policies and processes of our society.
Far too many black lives, including the life of George Floyd, have been lost and harmed at the hands of bias, prejudice, and systemic racism.
Whether it’s fake news about coronavirus causes and cures, “deep fakes” or inflammatory social media surrounding Floyd’s death and related protests, many people are wondering what major tech companies can and should do to monitor social platforms for posts that are akin to crying fire in a crowded theater.
Despite President Donald Trump’s absurd and insulting suggestion that Gugino may have been a wily Antifa provocateur “who fell harder than he was pushed,” he is anything but.
