Gov. Evers signs emergency order making it easier for families in need to receive emergency assistance The move suspends rules by the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families that affect any emergency assistance.

GOP Shutdown Counter with a calendar that reads 27 days

On Day 27 of Republicans' federal government shutdown, Wisconsin OCI released new data showing many Wisconsinites will be forced to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars more each month for their healthcare coverage if Republicans don't extend Affordable Care Act tax credits.

If people are hungry, you feed them.

If they are homeless, you house them.

If they’re sick, you give them medical care.

If they’re cold, you give them clothes.

Over 700,000 Wisconsinites are about to lose food assistance because of this federal shutdown. TomTiffany helped cause it. He’d rather play politics than protect families who just want to feed their kids.

Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

There's never been a musical quite like "Hamilton," and it remains one of my all-time faves, for many reasons. But the satirical sendup of King George III is one of them. :) #NoMoreKings www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5JA...

Long Covid Is Real -- And It's Changing an Entire Generation Long Covid is affecting hundreds of thousands of kids in America, and many doctors and schools refuse to recognize their illness.

Once again Rolling Stone knocks it out of the park with Covid coverage.

Long Covid is real and it is a serious threat to our long term health.

It’s already surpassed asthma as the most common chronic illness in kids.

Yet tons of doctors and schools won’t even recognize it:

In small towns and rural communities, young voters say they feel unseen by leaders Gen Z and millennial voters will make up more than half of the electorate in 2028. They're a crucial bloc for both parties, but many are facing daunting economic realities and feel unseen by leaders.

If you can’t join a No Kings protest because you’re sick, disabled or it’s unsafe … please don’t feel guilty.

We can all contribute in our own way and not everyone can be boots on the ground.

Share posts. Attend virtual events. Trust that the community is fighting for you.

Survival is resistance.

I can’t wait!
