The value of a community of business leaders has never been more relevant than it is today. I am proud to see the network of MMAC members working to support and serve each other. I know we will come through stronger together.
Consider that no snowstorm or cold front is too much for Green Bay Packer fans at Lambeau Field. Packer fans do not go in light clothes but instead bundle up in layers galore. That same spirit of overcoming the odds is precisely what we must employ now as we cast our ballots in the Spring Election.
Republican lawmakers say it has been difficult getting ahold of Gov. Tony Evers during the COVID-19 crisis. Try being Evers’ constituents.
And why is the research on this so sloppy?
With Wisconsin residents under Gov. Tony Evers’ stay-at-home order, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, consider how the COVID-19 pandemic is reshaping political organizing and the issues important to voters. Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
This column is a follow-up about the long-term strategic path of the Cap Times, but it seemed necessary to acknowledge the pandemic as the elephant in the room.
Gov. Tony Evers’ stay-at-home order is in unavoidable tension with our Constitution and with the very foundation of the American project. It must be limited in duration, narrow in its application and requires extraordinary justification at every step of the way.

It’s exposed weaknesses in Wisconsin that legislators must address after the crisis ends.
As Congress debates a coronavirus stimulus package, a Wisconsin Congressman is looking ahead to what needs to be done to combat the spread of the virus while also restoring our economy.

Arizona, Pennsylvania paved way for full licensure recognition.
There are steps state and local officials can take right now to mitigate this threat.
Life-and-death issue poses the most danger for Milwaukee. Only the Legislature can act.
Put a moratorium on all political fundraising while this pandemic is ravaging our communities. And to go one step further, take existing campaign funds and donate them to charitable organizations helping with the response efforts.
The incident raises First Amendment questions about Evers’ emergency order to stay home and the enforcement of the order.
Evers’ shutdown order debacle demonstrates once again that he is simply not up to the task of leading Wisconsin.
Wisconsin can and must defeat this disease without defeating ourselves.
The coronavirus pandemic has raised the possibility that voting in person could be unsafe by the time of the general election in November. Mail balloting could be a solution.
Pocan is proposing practical and visionary responses to the COVID-19 economic crisis. For the sake of workers and small businesses, let’s hope he succeeds on both fronts.
