The Wisconsin experience shows us that worker freedom means smaller, less powerful unions. It also shows us that government will continue to function and students will continue to learn and thrive.
Zweifel agrees with Chicago Tribune libertarian columnist Steve Chapman that such a parade should be used to mark the end of a war.
We have launched a tradition of working with a forward vision and shared goals, with the water agreement serving as a foundation for future successful collaboration. As a region we are in this together, and we invite our citizens and everyone to join us in building a collaborative future together.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Jensen & Chvala, debate Foxconn and analyze the reasons behind a GOP move to extend similar credits to Kimberly-Clark. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
With her 20-year career in the Legislature winding down, state Rep. Terese Berceau, D-Madison, says Democrats need to do a far better job of marketing their message going forward.
Instead of facing up to our incredible problem with firearms, we focus on half-way “solutions” like arming teachers or increasing the age to buy semi-automatic rifles from 18 to 21.
If the Northern Sea Route is to be commercially viable and Murmansk is to be the center of Arctic shipping, the Russians have to guarantee safety.
Study found students who attended an MPCP school were significantly more likely than their peers in public schools to enter college.

Most states limit governors to two terms, but not New York and Wisconsin, where Andrew Cuomo and Scott Walker are both seeking reelection this year.
The assumption of the hammock metaphor is that people are lazy and just need a kick to get moving. Another assumption is that fraud is rampant. Both assumptions are false.
As we approach this year’s annual celebration of Sunshine Week, March 11-17, it’s worth recalling times when people entrusted with our tax dollars have stood up for our right to know. But too often government agencies and elected officials pledge fidelity to openness while acting to keep us in the dark.
RightWisconsin’s James Wigderson and DOT Deputy Secretary Bob Seitz talk about the savings in the DOT budget since last year’s audit, the I-94 East-West freeway, and where do the orange barrels get stored when they’re not being used?
Twenty-one years ago, Congress caved in to a National Rifle Association demand, and effectively reduced federal spending on gun violence research.
The NRA’s worldview of armed teachers and hardened targets and endless bloodshed spilled on the altar of an insane absolutist view of gun rights is dangerous enough when practiced by the slim minority of citizens who are gun zealots. When that point of view is shared by a state’s chief law enforcement officer, it raises the question of whether he’s fit for his job. Answer: he isn’t.
What can Milwaukee learn from from losing its bid for Amazon’s headquarters?
We know that by working together we can find the best, most efficient ways to solve the state’s challenges, create private sector jobs and private sector profits, and keep that revenue in Wisconsin to invest in our people and our economy.
