Wisconsin has spent generations building its economy on things the world needs: manufacturing, agriculture, logistics, power, water and skilled labor. Today, another essential industry is being added to that list: data centers.
The AI revolution runs on data centers. The Midwest — and Milwaukee — has a real opportunity to be part of that story. But opportunity doesn’t wait.
Why Wisconsin’s clean energy future is about affordability, jobs, and independence
While Trump is ripping off taxpayers enriching himself, his family and cronies, he is ripping apart healthcare affordability and coverage for millions.
I hope you will join me in pledging to work every day to keep our Republic, and to achieve the as yet unrealized dream of one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
If more Americans knew these quotes and government followed Madison’s advice, we would have a lot more prosperity and a lot less government.
With opinions that are routinely packaged as principled constitutional jurisprudence, Thomas’ selective legal philosophy of a “colorblind Constitution” is only used when it advances a particular political agenda.
Nearly 250 years later, this promise of public education continues.
On July 4, 1986, President Ronald Reagan gave one of the most powerful addresses of his career.
Nothing screams the Fourth of July like signs ranting about ICE, cruelty, and taxing the “rich.” At least that’s the case in The World According to Chris Larson. … Other Wisconsin Democrats tried harder than Larson to camouflage, for a day at least, the fact that their party often paints a very grim and pessimistic picture of a dystopian America.
What does it mean to celebrate freedom from tyranny and the birth of a government founded on equal rights and the consent of the governed amid the current ICE surge?
The Americans who signed that Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, were taking the first step to rid their fledgling country of authoritarian rule. Now, 250 years later, we have to wonder how to get rid of another authoritarian regime.
Trump takes different approach than Ford.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, consider the chances for candidates vying to win top Wisconsin primary elections in August. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
For all the buzz her campaign has attracted, Hong looks like a candidate determined to be a loser.
Amid all the talk of “electability,” a Midwestern state’s radical history points to what’s possible.
Wisconsin Supreme Court moving slowly toward a decision.
Wisconsin families go to work every day and ask for one thing from their government: Don’t make it harder. The Working Families Tax Cut is delivering, and for Wisconsin’s workers, manufacturers and seniors, this is just the beginning.
Solvency can be achieved through a balanced combination of revenue increases and structural adjustments, such as delays in eligibility to older ages and lower rates of annual cost of living increases.
When a government tells you a record is being withheld, that is not the last word. It is one person’s reading, and sometimes it is wrong. You can read the statute yourself, point to the language, and ask someone with authority to take another look. Often, that is enough.
