AI health tools sound promising, but let’s be real – the bigger issues are still lack of healthcare access and reliable Internet in rural communities. You can’t Google your way out of not having a doctor within 100 miles or broadband that actually works. Infrastructure first, innovation second.

Derrick Van Orden looking over an image of his tweet that says "YES!" over the information that 17M people lost health care, 18M kids lost school meals, 3M Americans lost food assistance. 

Under is a message: IT'S TIME TO MAKE VAN ORDEN LOSE HIS JOB.

Derrick Van Orden voted for hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites to lose their health care and food security.

And he’s THRILLED about it.

This man is NOT fit to be a representative. In 2026, we need to make sure he’s GONE. Help us make it happen.

Thanks to all who joined in our Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary cleanup! Despite the heat, we had a great turnout. Together we removed 80 gallons of invasive species from one of our favorite local spaces. It felt good to put in the work for a place we love. Already looking forward to the next one!

Thank you, @govevers.wisconsin.gov, for fighting for Brown County, from supporting 5,500+ small businesses to securing $1.8M for public safety during the 2025 Draft. You led with heart and focus. We’re proud to carry that work forward.

Governor Evers Secures $256 million for the UW System in the Year of the Kid $100 million increase for UW System campuses statewide $7 million to support student mental health $148 million to help retain and recruit faculty and staff $1 million for UW-Green Bay's Rising Phoenix Early College High School Program AND! over $840 million for building projects on UW campuses

Threats to cut our UW System by nearly $90 million were a nonstarter for me.

I worked hard to secure the largest investment in our UW System in nearly two decades in addition to more than $840 million in campus building projects.

That face when you realize you’ve taken away hundreds of millions away from your country’s most vulnerable for a handful of greedy billionaires.

While Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of summer, it's first & foremost a day of remembrance. We remember and honor all those whose sacrifice made our freedoms possible.

Their courage, their service, and their legacy will never be forgotten.

If DOGE was ever truly meant to reduce spending and increase efficiency, it stands as one of the most spectacular failures in the history of the federal government.

Ripped headline from Politico that reads: wealth gain, low income people lose from GOP mega bill, analysis finds. And a ripped headline from The New York Times that reads GOP Tax Bill May Hurt the lowest earners and help the richest.

Ripped headline from Politico that reads: wealth gain, low income people lose from GOP mega bill, analysis finds. And a ripped headline from The New York Times that reads GOP Tax Bill May Hurt the lowest earners and help the richest.

It couldn't be clearer: Republicans are planning to cut critical programs that kids, families, seniors, and veterans depend on every day, while giving massive tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires.

The rich will get richer. Simple as that.

Jong-Fast: This would be the largest cut to food assistance in US historyβ€”and it will result in hungry kids.

It’s also important to mention that this bill grows the deficit. I don’t know how it manages to do the two things you absolutely don’t wantβ€”starve children and grow the deficitβ€”but it does.

Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' is ugly for Wisconsin. Republicans voted for it anyway.

Quote on an empty plate with silverware on the sides. "All of Wisconsin's Republican delegation voted yes Friday as the US House passed a budget bill that President Donald Trump calls big and beautiful-certainly true for billionaires, but anyone else in Wisconsin struggling with a weakened US economy will see impacts that, while large, aren't exactly pretty."

Thanks to the help of every Wisconsin Republican, Congress recently passed Trump’s β€œbig, beautiful bill”.

This bill will cut food assistance and healthcare for struggling families and give tax breaks to the ultra wealthy.

Wisconsin will NOT benefit from this. Read and share now:

Wisconsin Republicans decided that our children' s health is not a priority.

3 in 8 kids are on Medicaid to receive healthcareβ€”from routine care to getting medicineβ€”and Wisconsin Republicans voted to make HUGE cuts to Medicaid. We cannot let this stand.
