My qualifications are clear: I have done the job very well for many years. I have fought the moves by Republicans to transfer duties to the control of the governor. My priorities are to provide good service to the public that require information despite the stripping of the office of staff and responsibilities.
Gov. Walker has shown more support for apprenticeship and careers in the skilled trades than any other governor in our lifetime.
The Wisconsin Building Trades support the expansion of youth apprenticeship when done carefully and as a stepping stone to a registered apprenticeship when a person reaches the age of 18. But the more practical way to expose Wisconsin students to trade and technical careers is to actually fund K-12 education, specifically industrial-arts and technical-education programs in middle school and high school.
Wigderson and Scaffidi discuss Wisconsin’s top races.
He was going to get tough on Medicaid, now runs away from the issue.
We need to solve the problem of an office with a salary and nothing to do. As long as La Follette remains in office nothing will change and the taxpayers will continue being ripped off.
The diplomatic outrage in much of the West and the Mideast may have been immediate — except for Trump. The U.S. Congress is anxious to step in and force the White House to act, but foreign affairs remain an executive priority.

Homeowners in 148 school districts across Wisconsin will be getting an unexpected tax cut next year, but many of those districts would prefer to keep that a secret – and backfill those savings with new spending.
Halloween is around the corner, but that’s nowhere near as scary as the dark money flowing into Wisconsin once more.
Who are you going to believe, your eyes or the mainstream media? The latest discussion is whether Democratic “mobs” are behaving badly.
The stock market lost nearly 1,400 points over two days due to fear of rising interest rates on top of soaring deficits and a Trump-initiated global trade war.
Wisconsin employers face health insurance premium increases of more than $370 million beginning in 2020 if Congress does not act once again to delay the Health Insurance Tax this year.
The blatant effort in Georgia to disenfranchise people of color is now being challenged in court, as it should be.
I’ve witnessed some bizarre attempts by government officials to keep information from the public they’re supposed to serve — but the one that’s currently dragging on in Racine County clearly takes the cake.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Jensen and Chvala, analyze the possibility of ticket-splitters helping both Scott Walker and Tammy Baldwin to victory this fall. The last time that happened was 1998, when Tommy Thompson and Russ Feingold won. Sponsored by the Wisconsin
