If Brett Kavanaugh is confirmed he will split the U.S. Supreme Court right down the middle. A Yale lawyer, he’ll even the score. Four justices will be Yale-educated while four will have been churned out by Harvard Law School. The Notorious RBG went to Columbia Law School, but Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a Harvard undergrad, so I guess advantage Crimson.
The evidence is clear that while the nation’s economy is enjoying fabulous growth in jobs and wages, Wisconsin is one of the states leading the pack.
What’s been most disappointing about the reaction to my editorial is how my critics, willing to seize on a fake “gotcha” moment for their purposes, are willing to ignore the fact that nearly 25,000 students are trapped in failing MPS schools.
The Higher Education Regional Alliance has a bold goal to significantly reduce skills and talent gaps in southeastern Wisconsin by increasing the employment rates and number of post-secondary graduates in the region.
Wise members of Congress, including Mark Pocan, D-town of Vermont, have taken an interest in the 25th Amendment as a tool for checking and balancing errant presidents.
Kaul repeatedly told a Madison audience on Thursday he is opposed to Schimel’s lawsuits to kill the Affordable Care Act. However, when asked about a recent Obamacare victory by Schimel that netted Wisconsin $89 million, Kaul had nothing to say to reporters.
Gov. Scott Walker this month proclaimed September as Workforce Development Month, giving us all a reason to celebrate the economic success Wisconsin has enjoyed under his leadership. Much of this success can be attributed to the exceptional talent and dedication of Wisconsin’s workforce along with the strong partnerships the state has cultivated with other private and public organizations.
Farmers and other rural Wisconsinites need to “raise hell” and vote Democratic to save their farms and health.
The latest, and perhaps most egregious, move by the educrats in Madison is to try to make regulations by relying on the authority from the federal government – and not the people of Wisconsin.
As Donald Trump’s White House wallows in chaos, it’s time to take another look at how well he’s doing in making America great again.
Things are not going well for the governor.
The first congressional district in Wisconsin was so badly gerrymandered that the largely unknown Republican, a Paul Ryan clone opposing Democrat Randy Brice, is hanging on only a point behind Bryce in the polls.
September 9th through September 15th is National Suicide Prevention Week where organizations around the country unite with the goal of educating the public on ways to breakdown mental health stigma, identify signs of crisis and take action to support those who are struggling.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, take on the state Senate races that might flip political control in the November general election. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
Fanlund writes about a new book from Harvard researchers titled: “Network Propaganda: Manipulation, Disinformation, and Radicalization in American Politics.”
I wasn’t sent to Washington to take people’s health care away — I believe my job is to fix the system, not to blow it up and throw millions of people off their health care.
Former Governor Tommy Thompson regrets his role in implementing a 1991 plan to expand state prisons. While I don’t regret writing that plan, I do wish the state actually had implemented it.
A recently released DOT report’s general theme is that Wisconsin is borrowing less and spending prudently to meet transportation needs.
People’s Action reported they have learned voters in economically distressed rural communities want populist reforms like health care for all, fair wages, free access to education, clean water and a government that isn’t corrupted by the free flow of money from the wealthy.
Recently, Democrats on the Joint Finance Committee put out a press release critical of the amount of money that is spent on vouchers annually. Like many arguments put forth by opponents of school choice, the press release contains a number of misconceptions and misleading statements that warrant refutation
