Wisconsin is the lagging hind end of the progressive charge, a limping straggler unable to make up its mind on important statewide contests. And without local enthusiasm, the progressive wave will crash against rocky shores.
Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner will be justifiably lauded for his accomplishments. He has truly been an anchor for Wisconsin Conservatism for a generation and an instrumental part of Wisconsin’s history. But I hope he will also be lauded for never losing sight of the fact that he was, first and foremost, a representative, in the full and truest sense of that word.
Long-term school funding, teacher experience, student test scores are all down.
Baldwin cannot vote for billions of dollars for war and claim to be a progressive.
Which is why the North Carolina plan was overruled. Wisconsin’s is very similar.
Er, make that coffee hauses. Run by robots. And made to order in “Wisconn Valley.”
In the last few years, we’ve seen an accelerated spread of CWD throughout our state — we need to take CWD seriously and take steps to stop the spread.
A new book by Manhattan Institute Scholar Max Eden and Andrew Pollack, the father of a Parkland school shooting victim, sheds new light on the catastrophic role politically correct “positive” discipline policies played in the 2018 Parkland shooting and how those practices are hurting America’s schools.
Kaul was elected attorney general. He should be allowed to settle cases just as every other attorney general in our state’s history has.
Abele is crying poverty even though Milwaukee County and the City of Milwaukee receive by far the most money in shared revenue and overall aid from state taxpayers.
Hats off to Gov. Tony Evers for calling out Wisconsin legislative Republicans’ position on guns for what it is — BS.
What exactly does Choose Life Wisconsin do with the money it gets?
The federal government can do more. So can states from California to Wisconsin. And the old excuses of partisan division and ideological disagreement don’t cut it.
The state budgetary decisions are back filling the increased spending by local districts — perhaps it’s time for local districts to instead be held more accountable for their spending.
As the legislative session continues, I am leading several bills that will further support the needs of rural school districts.
You may disagree with me about the relative importance of student debt, but we can probably agree that at least returning to a pre-recession public investment in our public universities would be in everyone’s best interest.
As former Gov. Scott Walker slashed Wisconsin university and tech college budgets, he was a tireless champion of the for-profit sector and ripped away protections from students targeted by this predatory industry.
Bewley highlights legislation to improve mental health care.
As the community and the Air Force take the next steps toward a final decision, we have an opportunity to work together to propose solutions, reach compromises and forge a partnership that benefits all of Madison.
Yes, if the Democratic campaign is run on bread-and-butter issues.
