A RightWisconsin’s pundit panel looks ahead to 2020.

This entire session, I’ve tried to say we have shared government to acknowledge the need for bipartisanship, but it feels more like divided government. Despite setbacks in 2019, I will renew my optimism for the good government concept of cooperation in 2020.

A “permanent progressive field program” is working on it.

The real abuse of power, the abuse of power that should terrify everyone regardless of their opinions of Trump, came from an FBI so hell bent on influencing American politics that it has undone centuries of trust in American jurisprudence.

The Republican has showed his independence in the past. But not this time, not on impeachment.

With nearly 700,000 people potentially being cut from the federal program comes a consequence that deserves national attention.

The Thompson Center’s Ryan Owens discusses the work of the Speaker’s Taskforce on Suicide Prevention and more with Rep. Joan Ballweg, R-Markesan.

The column below reflects the views of the author, and these opinions are neither endorsed nor supported by WisOpinion.com. Just shy of two years ago, this column explored the heightened importance of open government when public health is at risk.

The poorly-considered decision to not enjoin education stakeholders in the selection process is a step backwards, not forward, in finding and selecting a new Wisconsin system president.

As 2019 comes to an end, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen pick their political winners and losers of 2019. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.

The minimum-markup law holds our state’s economy back, punishes consumers with higher prices, and makes shopping for the holidays, back-to-school, or any other time of year more expensive.

Let’s peek at the Christmas lists of some top Wisconsin officials.

Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce contends that local units of government shouldn’t be spending taxpayer money to support or oppose legislation that might affect them.

We can be quite certain that Dickens would have called out the Scrooges of the Trump administration who have, amidst this Christmastide, promulgated a new rule that is expected to cut off roughly 700,000 unemployed people from the “food stamp” benefits provided by the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

The “unattended tethering” bill will prohibit owners from tethering their dogs during extreme weather or under unsafe conditions, ban tethering to treadmills or training devices and prohibit owners from leaving dogs unattended in a motor vehicle under life-threatening circumstances.

The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, debate Gov. Tony Evers’ first year in office and his standing with voters. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.

As her Christmas present to the nation, Pelosi represents a firm roadblock, since she will not move the articles of impeachment forward or name the House managers (prosecutors) until after New Year’s. She will be accused of playing politics but she is merely pitting Trump, who desperately wants the trial to proceed, against McConnell, who claims he doesn’t care if it never gets to his chambers.

The threat of climate change and the economic opportunity of clean energy are clear as day, and Gov. Evers and I have made it a priority to address the threat and leverage the benefits.

Voters in Wisconsin — and other crucial swing states — have no trouble seeing the impeachment circus for the sham it is. We’ll be ready to re-elect President Trump in November 2020.

By resisting judge’s order to purge voter rolls, state commission resists voter suppression.
