As the Ranking Democrat on the Assembly Education Committee, I firmly believe the so-called “deal” that failed in the legislature last week not only shortchanged Wisconsin public schools, but also set our state up for untenable fiscal conditions down the road.

An 18-year-old kid gets stabbed in the street. He’s running for his life, begging for help, and instead of saving him, the police handcuff him while he bleeds out because the attacker claimed “racism.” They let him choke on his own blood. No urgency. No humanity. Just cold, ideological policing. Months later? Still no names. Still no suspensions. Still no accountability. Meanwhile, the same UK police have arrested over 12,000 people for social media posts. They move at lightning speed to jail citizens for tweets and online comments, yet they can’t even name or discipline the officers who allegedly let a stabbing victim die in handcuffs on the street. This is the definition of two-tier policing: aggressive against ordinary people speaking online, but protective when it comes to their own failures and protecting the narrative. The British people deserve real justice, not another cover-up. Justice for Henry Nowak.

Arkansas raised starting teacher pay from 48th in the nation to top 5 and at the same time cut our income tax by 25%. But trying to teach economics to Mayor Mamdani is probably a lost cause…

Americans don’t want to pay $5 for a gallon of gas. Americans don’t want to pay a billion dollars for a luxury ballroom. Americans don’t want to pay billions for a slush fund for January 6 rioter payouts. But that’s what this president is trying to force them to do.

They called it a “mental health” presentation. But parents found a worksheet that did far more than teach “consent” or “boundaries.” Do you want to have sex? What kind of sexual activities are you interested in? What are your boundaries? How does that feel? What would you like more or less of next time? Anything new you’d like to try? That is not basic child-safety instruction. That is adult sexual scripting in a classroom.

Wisconsin believes in second chances. Thanks to our Prison Education Initiative, these individuals are gaining the education and skills to build better lives for themselves and contribute to our communities. We're darn proud.
