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.

Bernie Sanders is no more of a communist than the state’s most revered politician, “Fighting Bob” La Follette.
Biden is ready to help rural America develop economically, giving small farmers a leg up. Fair trade and not trade wars. He stands with the middle class, people of color, women and LGBT. All of America, including Wisconsin, will see change.

The veto is the essence of a special interest sellout.
While we can’t control what happens at the federal level, there is something we can do right here, at home, in Wisconsin — expand Medicaid.
Where’s the plan to ensure that the coronavirus doesn’t upend the 2020 elections?
