As more individuals are being tested across Wisconsin and confirmed cases are likely to rise, it’s crucial we all take this seriously.
The column below reflects the views of the author, and these opinions are neither endorsed nor supported by WisOpinion.com. There are thousands of coronavirus cases in the U.S., including dozens in Wisconsin. Americans are dying. Democratic and GOP governors are
Life will again return to normal, but it will take time, patience and sacrifice. In the meantime, let’s remember that we’re all in this together.
Isthmus’ Craig Bartlett makes a plea for supporting local businesses however we can.
In his first year-plus in office, Gov. Tony Evers and his administration have closed a lot of doors to open government, evidenced by the transparency and First Amendment lawsuits pending.
It was the first formal committee hearing on the budget squeeze faced by Wisconsin cities, towns and villages in years, and members of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee heard some sobering numbers.
The WisOpinion insiders, Chvala and Jensen, ponder whether the Foxconn issue will enter the Wisconsin presidential primary as Joe Biden seeks to consolidate his lead and Bernie Sanders hopes Wisconsin is his firewall.
Every year brings forth new heroes and villains with regard to Wisconsin’s somewhat tattered tradition of open government. This year, it seems, we have had more heroes.
Go vote your heart, but to do so, you must be informed and you must think.
Contrary to DPI, not every educational approach has to cost millions of dollars.
Most universities have abandoned a small “l” liberal education in favor of a big “L” Liberal education. Instead of offering a broad perspective from diverse perspectives, they offer a narrow perspective from a hyper-orthodox view.

Senator Mike Lee of Utah joined the Thompson Center to discuss legislation relating to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and a set of provisions scheduled to expire on March 15, 2020. Senator Lee began his tenure in 2010 and is a member of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
It is a matter of time before Gov. Tony Evers announces that Wisconsin state government will go on hiatus — most of it, anyway — due to COVID-19.
Few people know Janesville or Rock County better than former Wisconsin State Sen. Tim Cullen, who proves the point again with his new book. It’s called “Disassembled,” and Cullen’s subtitle is a mouthful and a solid indicator of what readers can expect: “A native son on Janesville and General Motors, a story of grit, race, gender and wishful thinking and what it means for America.”
The data shows MPS trails other metro area districts in per-pupil spending.
While they thumbed their noses at farm assistance in 2019 and before, now they decided to go full bore. You wouldn’t be wrong to say that Evers’ call for a special session shamed them into it.
A suspicious lack of record keeping throughout the Evers Administration is just one example of its open disdain for transparent government and a solid reminder why journalists promote “Sunshine Week” every March.
In this time of divided government the Legislature may not be able to get sweeping tax reform signed into law, but they can take bold action and create constitutional safeguards to permanently defend Wisconsin taxpayers from tax hikes advocated for by tax-and-spend special interests.
Black History month, in part, is about acknowledging what people could do and create, when given access and opportunity.
