Comfortable in the grey area. Love the Bucks. Hate gerrymandering. Gun owner. Wish society focused more on healing than punishing. Vote person, not party.

Major issue with #thedaily today, the entire guest track is missing. I thought it was a Spotify issue but went to listen on @nytimes it was messed up there too. @mikiebarb

@nihilistanarch @PodcastAddict Yeah — no guest sound track! Just Michael’s chuckles and mm-hmm’s… kinda creepy, actually!!

Shame on Bret Schafer from @SecureDemocracy for this piece. It lays out was DOSN’T work, not what does. Tells me my boycott of social media is worthless, but doesn’t tell me what I should do instead… 1/2

The world has officially turned upside down. #GOP passes union-friendly bill and a #Dem Governor vetoes it citing need for more local control. jsonline.com/story/news/loc… via @journalsentinel

Rep Steil is apparently also pissed that @SpeakerVos and @SenatorDevin didn’t ensure localities receive more shared revenue. He wants Milwaukee to be able to ask our voters for a local sales tax.
Who knew?!
Thank you, @RepBryanSteil! What say you, Mr. Speaker and Mr. Leader?

There have been 38 homicides in Milwaukee in 2022. That’s a 100% increase from this time last year. We need to give police the resources they need. @UrbanMilwaukee chart below.

"The partisan maps adopted today, which intentionally disenfranchise a majority of Wisconsin residents, are an unfair and poor outcome in this case and pose a serious threat to representative democracy in our state." - @skchheda

@RepAndraca @BaysideGov Enacting policy based upon solid nonpartisan policy research — outstanding!! I give you an A+! :)

In response to a request from @BaysideGov, today I introduced a bill (LRB 4360) that will help municipalities in the 23rd district and across the state consolidate emergency dispatch services.

When the state projected higher tax collections last summer, @WisPolicyForum looked at how those funds could be used. As the state once again increases its projections, much of what we wrote back in June still applies : bit.ly/3KJclEn

More remarkable news from the Legislature's budget office - state tax collections through June 2023 are now projected to be $2.5B over previous estimates and the state's spending is expected to be lower than previously projected as well: docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/misc/lfb/misc/…

Looking for podcast recommendations that are not news or sports podcasts. Got plenty of those.

@WTMJSteve @SonOfaPitts There was a Wall St Journal piece on just that issue, and they found that unsubscribing does truly take you off lists amd does not worsen it by showing them a ‘live one’. I do it all the time and it works perfectly almost every time
