Even if Trump’s new testing is something less than he suggested, nonproliferation advocates worry that even the scientific objectives suggested by Energy Secretary Chris Wright would create a backlash that would open the door for other major nuclear powers to begin their own widespread testing.
Community solar is an option like none we have experienced before; it is decentralized, flexible, and ready to power Wisconsin’s future.
Health care management is complex. But smart politicians should, on behalf of citizens, be able to cut through the complexity toward solutions that work.
The Wisconsin legislature has introduced a bill to prohibit “foreign adversaries” from owning or acquiring land in Wisconsin. Richard Moore gives the low-down and compares it to similar efforts being made in other states, and at the federal level.
UW Law School on Friday will be holding a one-day conference on reviving fusion voting in Wisconsin.

We believe every college can learn something important from top community colleges: how to stay laser-focused on post-graduation success.
On Election Day Democratic candidates won big everywhere.
The end of Obamacare’s temporary subsidies accounts for only 3-4% of projected premium increases.
President Trump’s true colors were on display when he appealed to the Supreme Court to deny SNAP food benefits to Americans at serious risk of going hungry.
