Study suggests federal government invest in cities like Madison. Good idea?
The Second Chance Initiative would provide certified job and entrepreneurial tools, and life-skills training to prisoners who have both the desire and the will to succeed. Along with life-skills training, mental health and substance abuse treatment, we have the opportunity to change the trajectory of many people’s lives.
Mine on Wisconsin border would use approach that has resulted in 46 catastrophic failures in last 20 years.
What good is it to have access to health care if you can’t afford it? This is why some doctors are beginning to offer direct primary care (DPC) services.
Report shows how Republicans in Wisconsin, four other states can kill bills most voters support.
Throughout his adult life, Skornicka was one of the UW’s biggest champions, if not its biggest. From his days as a student to when he became an assistant chancellor before stepping down to run for mayor, he saw the university as a Wisconsin gem — a job creator, an economic engine for the entire state and a molder of a solid citizenry.
Key city agency seems to be in very big trouble. Why?
Nuclear weapons seem to get less attention than other critical issues like climate change and healthcare. But, given the President’s sole authority over nuclear weapons, we really should be hearing more from the candidates.

Knowledge-based, scientifically related jobs are becoming ever more important as the generator of employment and income, and those jobs are closely tied to investment in higher education — especially research.
Walker didn’t use if for eight years. How should Evers use it?
The Evers administration needs to think outside the box to get Medicaid expansion. Consider asking former GOP state Senator Dale Schultz to be the point person with the legislature. He could help make a New Year’s resolution of expanding Medicaid a reality.
The dramatic and seemingly paradoxical turn in support for impeachment reveals this, and once House Democrats’ overreach inevitably backfires, they will have only themselves—and the Scott Walker Effect—to blame.
The coalition of the state’s biggest corporations and business interests isn’t satisfied with weakening unions and eviscerating even the most common-sense regulations. Remarkably, it’s now knee-deep into fighting efforts to protect clean water in the state.
With an historic House vote on impeachment of President Trump looming, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, examine the political impact on Wisconsin voters. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
A UW-Madison program that links university students and faculty with Wisconsin communities seeking research assistance is gaining traction.
