Anglers, hunters, trappers, wildlife watchers, hikers and other pedestrians who bisect the tracks at unofficial crossings are subject to a trespassing ticket and fine.
For too long, we’ve been putting a bandage over the gaping wound of outdated pricing systems that are not sustainable and that are no longer serving our farm families. That’s why next week Wisconsin Farmers Union will be bringing farmers together to work toward change.
Strategic return of money to the taxpayers or panicked response to a Democratic surge? The WisOpinion Insiders, Jensen & Chvala, debate GOP spending items this election year.
Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
On tariffs, Republicans like Ryan and others apparently know better than to aggressively criticize Trump so as not to offend his base within the GOP that seems perpetually angry.
At first blush, the president’s proposal may sound enticing and even patriotic — an “America First” policy designed to punish foreign exporters and benefit U.S. industries. But in fact, the opposite is true. Tariffs aren’t really taxes on imports — they are taxes on American families and American businesses.
Several union leaders I spoke with worry these are tariffs from a “president who wants to protect the industry, not the worker.”
The Wisconsin Freedom of Information Council could not have picked a worse recipient for its political openness award than Scott Walker.
RightWisconsin’s James Wigderson talks with Michael Jahr of the Badger Institute about the new Center for Opportunity, which will focus on public policy issues related to criminal justice reform and occupational licensing.
Legislation based on fleeting headlines is almost always a bad idea. Instead, we should offer politicians a new challenge: Post a video of yourselves resisting the temptation to grandstand.
The DNR has a credibility problem, having been stripped of authenticity and respectability by a Governor who intentionally installed across top management positions a ‘chamber of commerce mentality.’
Evidence shows he had Milwaukee cops digging for dirt on MaryNell Regan. Why?
Walker thought Foxconn would be a home run for his reelection prospects when it was announced last summer. But it turns out that voters are more than a little skeptical of the $3 billion state taxpayer giveaway and the free pass on environmental regulations.
While the focus has been on Racine County, we should challenge leaders to think beyond the boundaries of the project and consider how Foxconn can help spur a coordinated, long-term regional approach to enhancing the I-94 corridor.
The governor spends billions to build yesterday’s economy.
I believe you can support 2nd Amendment rights and work to ensure that Wisconsin families feel safe in schools, church or elsewhere. I hear and want action for what the children are saying!
The lack of oversight, shady accounting, co-mingled governing structures and incomplete record keeping is intolerable in a system where hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars are at stake.
New report points to problems, which can be seen nationally and in Wisconsin.
Nobody has proposed jailing the state schools superintendent for having silly ideas about gun control or placing his political ambitions above the welfare of students.
Gov. Walker recently signed into law Assembly Bill 887, which directs the state to seek a federal waiver to allow operation of a state-based reinsurance plan to stabilize the marketplace.
$4.1 billion handout will deliver even less benefits, more costs than imagined.
