Transgender kids should be allowed to live their lives | Terry Hansen

Transgender kids should be allowed to live their lives | Terry Hansen

    Kudos to U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico, a Democrat in Texas, for expressing empathy for transgender children and for admiring their courage in traveling to the Texas Capitol to advocate for their humanity.

    Rebecca Cooke best to beat Rep. Derrick Van Orden | Kristina Reser-Jaynes

      The midterm election may be our last chance to end the erosion of our democracy and protect our rights and freedoms.

      Sauk County leaders must listen to people | Daniel Holzman

      Sauk County leaders must listen to people | Daniel Holzman

        Many Sauk County citizens stepped up and ran for the Sauk County Board in April. I am thankful for their willingness to run for public office. It’s not an easy job.

        Stop the growth of data centers in Wisconsin | Phillip Petit

        Stop the growth of data centers in Wisconsin | Phillip Petit

          Wisconsin residents and regulators, please join the chorus of voices who oppose current and future construction of data centers in our state.

          Jan. 6 should trouble all patriotic Americans | Valerie Leffler

          Jan. 6 should trouble all patriotic Americans | Valerie Leffler

            Are you a patriotic American? Do you proudly fly our flag? Do you stand in reverence when a military unit marches by in a parade, and solemnly place your hand over your heart? Do you observe every military holiday as a chance to thank those who served and still do for our freedoms?

            Americans must admit Trump was a mistake | Bill Dagnon

            Americans must admit Trump was a mistake | Bill Dagnon

              All human beings make mistakes, but then we need to fix them. What happens when a country's voters make a huge mistake?

              Felons should be banned from White House | Dennis Dankert

              Felons should be banned from White House | Dennis Dankert

                President Donald Trump is a felon who pardoned the criminals who attacked the Capitol and police officers on Jan. 6. Then he tried to create an anti-weaponization fund to the tune of $1.8 billion to compensate those criminals and his political allies.

                Trump's new slush fund shows that crime pays | Roger Johnson

                  Contrary to what we've been told, crime pays.

                  Independent candidates offer hope for change in Washington | Steve Martin

                    About 90% of all seats in Congress are considered "safe." That means the minority party has virtually no chance of winning the election.

                    Patriots should support our Constitution, not a king | Linda Heller

                    Patriots should support our Constitution, not a king | Linda Heller

                      The U.S. Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The act was supposed to stop racial discrimination at the ballot box.

                      Borealis Amtrak route shows demand for rail | Susan Foote-Martin

                        Three states are celebrating the second anniversary of Amtrak’s Borealis daily train service between Chicago and St. Paul. The partnership between the state-supported service includes Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, the federal government, local municipalities and Amtrak.

                        Anti-Weaponization Fund needs oversight | Cory Fanta

                          I’m a taxpayer and resident of Sparta, and I'm concerned about the recently announced Anti-Weaponization Fund.

                          UW Badgers softball team does Wisconsin proud | Daniel Grant

                            I want to celebrate the strong season from the UW Badgers women’s softball team.

                            Free groceries were Mother's Day magic in Madison checkout line | Marnie Schulenburg

                              A touching Mother’s Day moment unfolds in Madison’s Hy-Vee where a man steps in to pay another customer’s groceries after she cannot find her card, revealing their shared experience of loss and kindness.

                              Trump's unchecked spending is busting federal budget | Markus Fasel

                              The Republican Party claims to be fiscally conservative, yet Congress handed President Donald Trump unchecked spending power.

                              Both political parties are guilty of warmongering | Pete Papageorge

                              Democrats whining about President Donald Trump's war in Iran should look in the mirror.

                              Watergate scandal still echoes in our politics | Robert L. Bellman

                              August will mark the 52nd anniversary of the end of the Watergate scandal that plagued our nation in the early 1970s.

                              Reducing food waste is key to saving planet | Imi Humphrey

                              Reducing food waste is key to saving planet | Imi Humphrey

                              As a student trying to live in harmony with the planet, I feel it is necessary to highlight our inability to meet the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal No. 12, which focuses on responsible consumption and production. Unsustainable production threatens Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which focuses on people’s standard of living.

                              America after 250 years remains a work in progress | Masood Akhtar

                              America after 250 years remains a work in progress | Masood Akhtar

                              As the United States approaches the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, this moment should be more than a celebration. It is a time for reflection, education and renewed civic purpose. Few nations reach a quarter of a millennium without challenges and reinvention. America is defined not by perfection, but by its enduring commitment to liberty, opportunity and self-government -- even amid competing ideas and interests.

                              Celebrate America as 'beacon of light' to world | Steve Martin

                              Celebrate America as 'beacon of light' to world | Steve Martin

                              In this 250th birthday year for our country, I am profoundly grateful to have grown up in this remarkable land. I am also extremely proud of what America represents and what we have accomplished.

                              Backyard chickens can't be an impulse purchase | Krysta Koralesky

                              If you are thinking of buying eggs to hatch into chickens, please know that you can’t tell if you’re going to get an egg-laying hen or a rooster.

                              Portage should reinvest in struggling downtown | Janet Van Epps

                              Once a vibrant heart of its community, downtown Portage was alive on Friday nights. Families such as mine would gather downtown, sitting together, watching people shop at small, locally-owned businesses while the streets bustled with life. Those memories are precious.
