There was little media attention last month when the Dane County Board quietly passed a new wheel tax. It’s a big subsidy from Madison residents to those who live in rural areas.
A rogue state agency took my personal emails and filed them under “opposition research.”
State leaders such as Walker and Ducey are stepping up to the plate when it matters most — not just during the campaign, but now, when their constituents desperately need solutions.
When the Kochs say “Jump!” Scott Walker asks “How high?” So it came as no surprise that the governor of Wisconsin and his legislative allies moved this fall to make Wisconsin the 28th state to support the convention call.
Republican Attorney General Brad Schimel has spent the last year picking the controversial issues on which he will base his campaign for a second term.
The recent injunction at Lincoln Hills creates an opportunity for change. The job isn’t easy, and the state must support the facilities by ensuring that they have the resources, training and guidance to do the job right. By taking advantage of this moment and relying on data and research-based solutions, the administration can transform the facility to a healthier, safer environment for all youth and staff.
Leaders of the Wisconsin legislature will determine whether Christmas 2018 will be merry or just more expensive for property owners in Wisconsin. City and village leaders around Wisconsin are making one wish: that the Legislature takes a vote on the Dark Store and Walgreens loophole repair bills.
Trump’s unthinking and uninformed comments on everything from race to a free press are dangerously eating away at the foundation of our democracy.
Nichols recounts how the Cap Times’ advocated to have U.S. Sen. Joe McCarthy expelled from the Senate and vows the paper will do the same regarding Roy Moore if Alabama voters elect him.
I urge Sen. Johnson to recognize the need to restrain the power of the president to launch a first strike, and the peril of any policy that would create more “usable” nuclear weapons. Instead, I hope he is inspired by the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize being awarded today to a group seeking to abolish nuclear weapons from the face of the earth.
The DOJ report, commenced to investigate the leak of confidential information from the John Doe investigations to The Guardian newspaper, confirms many of the suspicions Republicans have had about the fairness of the probes.
The attorney general’s recommendations in its leak investigation report provide a good start to achieve accountability.
Trump and the GOP-led Congress are pushing budget and tax cuts that will tie our hands to solve future problems.
Several provisions in the tax bill being advanced by congressional Republicans target student loan borrowers, students and the schools they attend. The impacts will be hurtful.
Under my proposal the cost of free tuition at two-year and tech colleges is funded by repealing the manufacturing portion of the Manufacturing and Agriculture Tax Credit. Trading one manufacturers’ tax break for a pool of skilled workers is a good exchange.
Recent issues of DNR magazine Walker sought to end lack useful reporting about real issues facing the agency and the public.
In “Two Minutes with Mitch” radio personality Mitch Henck gives his two cents after Sen. Al Franken announced his resignation.
State bill would require retroactive referendum.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Jensen & Chvala, handicap Tammy Baldwin’s re-election race as national forces fight for control of the U.S. Senate. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
Do you agree with the state’s elimination of the minimum age of 10 to participate in mentored hunts?
