What with Trump’s budget ending Great Lakes Restoration and crucial, related Sea Grant funding, and cutting more clean water grants to states by 45%, it seems like a good day to acknowledge two literally sickening realities.
We encourage our Great Lakes neighbors to contact their elected representatives and ask them to restore adequate funding to EPA to protect our health and natural resources. It is a wise investment in our future.
Polar opposites back “mobility grants” to help unemployed move to get jobs.
In “Two Minutes with Mitch” radio personality Mitch Henck gives his two cents on how a terrorist attack at an Ariana Grande concert will affect world politics.
Clarke’s extensive use of citations indicates that he did not intend to pass off his source material as his own work.
Clarke obviously intended to deceive exactly no one. He cites his sources abundantly and clearly in his thesis.
Halfway through his foreign barnstorming, President Trump has presented a calmer, more rational and reassuring face than his US charges have ever seen up-close and constant.
Governments have long enabled metro area’s biases.
Our Safe Communities Act contains two critical pieces — uniform, core principles regarding when force is used that have been recommended by law enforcement, and an updated annual training standard that includes use of force options, emphasizing de-escalation.
Any discussion of poverty in Milwaukee has been stunted by the decades-old battle that pits powerful conservative advocates of school vouchers against the once powerful liberal defenders of public education.
Wisconsin’s Republican governor, Scott Walker, believes that citizens of his state who use public services should have to submit to drug testing. And anyone who refuses to be tested should be turned away.
Dayton opposes preempting local sick pay ordinances.
Our budget helps to build a strong workforce by investing in student success. We reform welfare to reward work. And we make government more accountable so we can continue to lower the tax burden on our hard-working taxpayers.
Millions of Wisconsinites fill their gas tanks each day, blissfully unaware that the cost per gallon they pay is artificially inflated by state law.
If dairy producers cannot find the labor they need, our nation must either import workers or import dairy products from foreign countries.
Second straight year Gov. Scott Walker left the podium without taking questions.
The youths at the Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake juvenile prisons need a lot more help from the Legislature than they are getting.
I get the motive behind proposals in the Legislature to punish those who would use violence to disrupt speakers on the state’s public university campuses. But I’m also very leery of government efforts to control speech.
Focus on winning the 2018 elections with a Democratic message of economic security and social justice. Restore checks and balances. Vote.
This Never Trumper sees no impeachable offense.
