Data from the newly released state report card reveals that more charter schools and private schools in the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program are meeting or exceeding expectations than Milwaukee Public Schools.
Wisconsin GOP U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher’s reform agenda for Congress (Atlantic) seems well-intended, but mostly inadequate for the Trump initiated constitutional crisis.
We are blessed by the service and sacrifice of our Native tribes. One example is the role they played in the wake of the devastating fire in Peshtigo in 1871.
All of the most powerful players in the agribusiness industry, except the farmer, benefit from overproduction. For farmers, the economics of this overproduction are so bad that many have been forced out. But the agribusiness sector marshals its lobbying power in Washington to oppose supply management.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, analyze the new reality: divided government in Wisconsin. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
Support for gun regulation is 52 percent compared to 44 percent for gun rights, the reverse of two years ago, according to a recent national survey conducted by the Pew Research Center. Another recent poll by the Kaiser Foundation showed that gun safety is now the third most important issue to Americans, wrote Robert Spitzer, a political scientist and the author of five books on gun policy, in a recent New York Times op-ed.
Voters rejected Democrats for the Assembly, Robin Vos declares. Er, not exactly.
After 8 years of conservative policies, the next executive pushes liberal plans.
Walker has made two worrisome moves since his rejection by the voters on Nov. 6th for a third term that go beyond a losing incumbent’s understandable unhappiness at being defeated.
Our politics can again be high-toned and honest. We can again have leadership that shows people a path forward as opposed to always a mere reflection of where we are presently. We have not had that in our state for many years. Tony Evers can do that by talking honestly to the people he will now lead. I am hopeful
Right before our eyes, the deal is changing.
Republicans threaten governor’s power, but may actually kill a bad 2017 law they passed.
Robin Vos appears to be following a Republican playbook in his quest to limit Gov.-elect Tony Evers’ power once in office. The North Carolina Legislature did the same thing in 2016.
The latest internet outrage du jour is the photo of a bunch of boys from Baraboo High School posing for a photo before prom while possibly giving the Nazi salute.
Based on the Democrats’ statewide success in last Tuesday’s election, it’s safe to say that more voters came out to support Democratic candidates than their Republican counterparts. With that being the case, how did the Republicans increase their firm grip on the Legislature while losing five statewide contests?
Democrats in 2018 got 54% of vote yet only 36 Wisconsin Assembly seats, while Republicans got 45% of the vote and 63 seats.
After last week’s election, our liberal-progressive-socialist acquaintances are pouting. They finally unseated that Republican golem, Scott Walker, but still lost the state legislature to Republicans. Got to be cheating! What else would explain the imbalance except that ol’ devil Gerry Mander?
An emotional and closely divided election is a fitting end to Scott Walker’s contentious career as Wisconsin’s governor this past Tuesday night.
In a recent column, Washington Post “center right” columnist and blogger Jennifer Rubin bluntly accused Trump of being responsible for the Tree of Life synagogue killings.
Given Giampietro’s clear qualifications, he should be confirmed to fill the current vacancy and help expedite the important work of Wisconsin’s federal judges.
