To dull the damage, massive government intervention is required on the scale of our mobilization for World War II. Unprecedented American resources, public and private, will be required to control the medical convulsion from the Coronavirus pandemic, but also to head off a depression.
Most of the many workers laid off have no paid leave. This is a crisis.
In the 2010 Census, Wisconsin had the highest percentage of completed Census forms per household in the nation. Let’s keep it up. Get counted, be visible, and get the services you need.
It wouldn’t surprise any observer of state politics if Sanfelippo set some modern-day record for being a human wrecking ball, sabotaging public interest legislation by inserting his own biases and skewed political agenda at just the right moment.
Cap Times Opinion Editor Jessie Opoien shares ways to help others amidst the coronavirus pandemic.
Lawmakers should streamline regulations so more people can work.
The coronavirus crisis isn’t at all the same as the Great Recession, but once again the resulting economic disaster will hurt lower-income Americans the most, plunging them into personal economic crises just when they were recovering from the last one.
When Democratic Gov. Tony Evers vetoed the Republicans’ package of $392 million in tax cuts and debt payoff, he had no way of knowing how soon elected officials in the Capitol would need that cash.

Her campaign charges against the Supreme Court amount to slander.
Citing safety concerns due to the coronavirus pandemic, some elected officials and others have called for the spring election to be postponed, while others have said it should continue to avoid leaving some offices vacant during the crisis.
In times like these, our tendency is to demand that the government “do something” about it. I assure you that our government IS doing as much as it can to respond to the virus. But we need to “do something” too. We need to stay home if we are sick. We need to find ways to work, shop and participate in society remotely or without exposing ourselves and others. We need to support local businesses in any way we can. We need to remain calm and do our part.
The profound social consequences of this pandemic have punctured the bubble of our version of normality.
Evers has not yet issued any orders that would provide for emergency, temporary, or out-of-state licensing for medical professionals.
The real Joe Biden is itching to speak out but is being advised by his insiders to temper his past blasts at Trump. Like him or hate him, the nation needs Trump to succeed for the sake of millions of US lives – plus he is all too eager to paint any opposition as “un-American.”
Wisconsin GOP Senator Ron Johnson keeps showing that he is in over his head.
In the place of democratic socialism or big government liberalism, the Trumpian-Walker approach is monopolistic corporatism, complete with an un-unionized work force in an economy that simply doesn’t work for many. This is the real Trump-Walker gravy train.
As the spread of COVID-19 becomes a national health problem, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, grade the performance of President Donald Trump and Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers on their response to the pandemic. Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
Republicans and Democrats will work together to defeat coronavirus.
