For the Water
Where do you go to find over 17,000 lakes, 86,000 miles of rivers and streams, 5.3 million acres of wetlands
and 650 miles of Great Lakes shoreline? Don’t go anywhere! Stay in Wisconsin!
Healthy water is one of Wisconsin’s greatest assets. By protecting our water, we protect the health of our
people, our economic interests, our recreation and our wildlife. Protecting both surface and ground water is
smart money management. It costs less to protect our water than it costs to clean contaminated water.
Healthy water for the whole state ...
Republicans against Trump
“...another four years of Donald Trump’s chaotic leadership, this time focused on advancing the dangerous goals of Project 2025, will hurt real, everyday people and weaken our sacred institutions.”
This quote is from a statement signed by 238 former Republican officials and campaign staff going back to the George H.W. Bush administration. They are urging Republicans to vote for VP Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz.
Fostering division is one of the primary results of Donald Trump's actions and bombastic demagoguery. His angry, hateful, racist and destructive fear ...

WALZ VISIT TO WAUSAU
For those who are not on Facebook, here are a few photos from Governor Tom Walz visit to Wausau on September 13, 2024. What an honor it was to be selected as a driver in the Walz motorcade!! I transported the national press. I have seen motorcades before, but I cannot even begin to explain the thrill of driving in one. It is amazing to see the work of the secret service. I cannot say enough about their thoroughness and commitment. The precision is astounding. We lost track of how many times our vehicle and our person is checked, wanded and sniffed by the dogs....
VETERANS FOR HARRIS
“As veterans, we have defended this nation with courage and honor; now we must defend it at the ballot box.” Jose Vasquez, U.S. Army Veteran and Executive Director of Common Defense.
No one and no organization speaks for all veterans. Those who have served in the military reflect a cross section of our society. Their social and political views are as diverse as any other sampling of citizens. We often stereotype veterans as being conservatives, but this is not true. There are many veterans with liberal opinions on many issues.
There are two nationwide veteran...
November 2024 Constitutional Amendment League of Women Voters
November 2024 Constitutional Amendment
This November, voters will have another harmful, divisive constitutional amendment on their ballot. We will show up and vote no and keep Wisconsin moving forward.
Our voting rights are literally on the ballot with this amendment. The change from "every" to "only" is a downgrade to all of our voting rights. The language changes our constitutionally protected voting rights from a guarantee for all citizens to a limitation that could be used to erode our voting rights.
In fact lawmakers have already discussed this being a step on ...
Central America Forward
With Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign underway, the GOP is accelerating its lies about her work as Vice President. Though responsibility for the southern border rests with the Departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services, they call Harris a failed “Border Czar,” deliberately mischaracterizing her early presidential assignment – to address the root causes of migration – while obscuring her accomplishments.
As the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported on 6/12/24, VP Harris’ 2021 “Call to Action” has triggered major commitments from ...
Something More Than Free
Does a song and its lyrics hit home and make you think?
Something More Than Free, by Jason Isbell is one of those songs.
“I don’t think on why I’m here, where it hurts, I’m just lucky to have the work.”
“I thank God for the work.”
Are you thankful for the crews who work in the hot blazing sun, in the rain and in
the winter to fix our roads, streets, and bridges; and plow the snow and keep the
roads safe?
Are you thankful for the $550 billion over fiscal years 2022-2026 from the
Infrastructure Act that will provide jobs to build mass ...
