How we’ve been misled — repeatedly — about Brewers “economic impact.”

We have a chance to shake things up when it comes to thinking about how to attract national and international businesses to our area and how our regional partners are involved and can benefit.

A new study shows how voter-ID laws decreased turnout among African-American and Democratic voters.

There is reason for considerable caution about this study, which is at odds with what other studies of the effect of Wisconsin’s voter id has found and there are questions about the study’s methodology.

In “Two Minutes with Mitch” radio personality Mitch Henck says Madison officials should look to New York on how to deal with gun crime.

Instead of taking meaningful action to reduce gun deaths, some of our representatives in Madison are trying to weaken our existing gun laws.

The administration has agreed to do what it could have long ago: provide clean drinking water to those penalized by uncaring public policies and proximity to the manure makers.

The “heckler’s veto,” whether it is disruption of the event by shouting or actual acts of violence, has no place on our state-funded college campuses.

The state can save at least $60 million in the next 2-year budget by simply changing the way it pays for state employee health benefits. Those savings grow by at $22 million more in general purpose revenue if repeal or delay of an ObamaCare tax does not occur. Unfortunately those savings are at risk of being left behind by the Legislature.

Stop trying to repeal the ACA. Kill Trumpcare in the Senate.

It is a terrible proposal and people are going to pay more for less coverage. That’s the big lie of Paul Ryan’s Trumpcare, though: It was never intended to help people.

Kooyenga pitched his plan as a way to address Wisconsin’s population decline, which he attributed to retirees headed to known low-tax havens. People I know who’ve moved south talk about the snow blowers they don’t need anymore, not tax rates in Wisconsin that don’t apply.

What we have now is of the Rube Goldberg variety, with punishing taxes, blinding complexity and overreliance on ultimately self-destructive borrowing. Kooyenga’s plan starts to lead us out of this morass.

Wisconsin’s adult inmate population is expected to grow to 23,233 by mid-2019.

For decades both businesses and law enforcement agencies have felt legally protected in their behavior toward customers and citizens, but the law is changing beneath their feet. The power of a video to go viral, or one Facebook customer’s unhappiness to spread, or millions of voices to chime in on Twitter– all are creating havoc at airports, stores, squad patrols, media outlets, complaints departments, sports events and, of course, almost every event the Trump administration concocts.

While we have all become too accustomed to watching story after story on the nightly news about the latest overdose death in our community, soon we may actually see some positive opiate news – direct movement from our state government to combat this growing and especially destructive problem.

Documents examined by the Center for Media and Democracy expose a national effort by the Milwaukee-based Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation to defund and dismantle unions, the most significant force for higher wages and better working conditions in America.
