Targeting people because of their beliefs or background is wrong. This is clearly about sowing division and fear and doesn't help make Wisconsin safer.

I’m thinking of Mr. Sarsour's family in this difficult time, and I join Rep. Gwen Moore in calling for his immediate release.

Our farmers deserve better than continued uncertainty and chaos from their federal government.

Thanks for having me, Gompers!

Wisconsin winters are getting wetter, shorter, warmer, report reaffirms Between 1980 and 2024, Wisconsin was hit with 63 weather and climate disasters, costing the state more than $1 billion in losses, a report found.

Folks, the climate crisis is here, and Wisconsinites are experiencing it firsthand—from snow droughts to historic floods.

Wisconsin farmers strained as USDA workforce reduced by 23% The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has lost more than 24,000 workers under the Trump administration, according to U.S. Office of Personnel Management data.

Our farmers depend on the USDA and the services it provides. So, when President Trump cuts and guts its funding and fires 24,000 of its workers, that hurts our farmers.

Here in America's Dairyland, we will not turn our backs on our farmers.

In Wisconsin, BadgerCare covers about 40 percent of births. Thanks to our hard work, now, thousands of those moms and babies will have access to the postpartum care they need for one whole year after birth. It’s a big deal.

Our daughter Erin has delivered over 1,000 babies at Meriter Hospital, so it was great to have the chance to visit her at work and to hear about what expanding postpartum coverage from 60 days to a year means for moms and the care provided at Meriter.

‘A very dark cloud’: Wisconsin mom sees ACA premium more than double Monday marked the 16th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. Enhanced premium subsidies expired in December, driving up costs for many Americans.

This week, we celebrated the anniversary of the ACA, but thanks to President Trump and Republicans, healthcare costs have skyrocketed for families like the Jaworskis.

This cannot continue. Republicans in Congress need to fix the crisis they created.

For years, Wisconsin was just one of two states in the entire nation that hadn't extended postpartum coverage for new moms on Medicaid to one year.

Well, not anymore! See ya later, Arkansas! 👋

I spent time in Wausau last week listening to moms and women about the issues that matter to them.

Especially as the Trump Administration continues its attacks on women's health, voting rights, and livelihoods, supporting Wisconsin women couldn't be more important.
