Through Gov. Evers’ extension of the Stay and Home Order, businesses and individuals are being crippled with no opportunity for relief. Sweden has had success with minimal governmental interference on everyday business, while still advocating for social distancing when necessary.
Abrams says she’s not campaigning to be Joe Biden’s vice president — but, if you ask her if she’d take the job, she won’t shy away from sharing her qualifications.
Virtually everyone is going to struggle to pay their taxes and it would add insult to injury if local governments were to propose tax increases this fall while not imposing any pain on their own organizations.
A Wisconsin Dells business finds itself the possible victim of a government arbitrarily exercising its emergency powers during the coronavirus pandemic.
Cash payments put Americans in the driver’s seat because they are empowered to decide how to spend it: pay bills, buy groceries, save, invest in a more energy efficient car, spend it at a local business, or anything else.
DHS’ order at once represents a grossly unconstitutional infringement on individual rights, an arbitrary and capricious application of draconian restrictions on the citizenry, and a blatant violation of Wisconsin law governing emergency powers.
The virus can easily spread to smaller towns and rural areas if safeguards are not in place.
The plan is short on substance, based on milestones that are unclear and difficult to measure, and leaves the decisions about when and how to reopen the Wisconsin economy up to the unfettered discretion of DHS.
I join federal legislators like Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) who called for data transparency to ensure that businesses of color are being shut out of these loans. For many Americans, these loans will be all that businesses have to help them hang on through the pandemic.

Using government to help Americans have a better life isn’t in the Trump playbook.
New generation of young Milwaukee leaders, Crowley, Nicholson, Johnson, all raised in state’s poorest ZIP code.
Rosenberg joined Wedge Issues host and Cap Times opinion editor Jessie Opoien to discuss her campaign, her plans for the city, what she loves about Wausau and, of course, the tweet.
Today we have a political cesspool that turns everyone’s stomach, or at least it should. The dream to be president is now more like a nightmare.
We must get away from a partisan view of the law.
Every part of our state is different and every business and organization is unique, which is why it just makes sense for us to use a more individualized plan to reopen Wisconsin as safely and quickly as possible.
While AB 1038 was a stepping stone in the effort to grant relief to the people of Wisconsin, it did not go far enough.
I appreciate the governor sharing his insights into his decision-making process. It is clear that he has put at least some thought into his decision-making. But Evers’ response, as far as it goes, shows the frightening results of his decisions.
