Former Speaker Ryan criticizes vote to oust McCarthy: “What happened in the house was a total disgrace. It was 4% of the Republican conference led by one unprincipled demagogue, shutting down the house and removing a speaker for frankly doing his job.” fox13now.com/news/local-new…

For years, Republicans have silenced Black voices when it comes to #BlackHistoryMonth. Instead of letting Black members of the Senate highlight Black historical figures, artists, and heroes; Senate Republicans passed a watered-down resolution instead. This is shameful.

Let’s #LegalizeIt !

Of the top 10 highest-performing state economies over the past year, 3 of the top 6 have fully legalized marijuana. 6 of the top 10 have medicinal programs. 1 more has decriminalized. It's time for Wisconsin to get on board!
