What if Wisconsinites were told they couldn’t heat their houses by burning fossil fuels in a furnace, the way about 4 out of 5 Wisconsin homes do now?
What would that cost us?
A new report crunches the numbers:

If voters approve two constitutional amendment questions this coming August, Wisconsin would join 34 other states whose governors and legislators have authority over major federal funding allocations.

Prior to Evers taking office in 2019, the Legislature could expect that 20% to 25% of the bills introduced would be enacted in any given session.
Those numbers plummeted to 9.4%, 11.6% and 11.5% in the last three sessions respectively.

Between 2022 and 2023 alone, Eau Claire County gained approximately 885 people, the third largest gain in the state behind Dane and Waukesha counties.

A consultant’s analysis called UW-Green Bay’s fiscal situation dire. What has been the campus’ staffing and enrollment trend?

A “tax hell” no longer:
Over the past decade alone, Wisconsin has climbed 10 positions among the 50 states in the Tax Foundation’s Business Tax Climate Index.

Eau Claire is growing fast for Wisconsin. Why? Less crime, less traffic – and less of Minnesota’s unbearable taxes.
badgerinstitute.org/minnesotans-fl…
The population of Eau Claire County, now approximately 108,000, has grown almost 10% just since 2010.
A little farther west, just across the St. Croix River from Minnesota, St. Croix County has grown 15%.

One good thing going for us: Our top income tax rate may still be one of the worst, but Wisconsin overall has dramatically improved its competitiveness on taxes.

The community leaders in tiny Yuba, Wisconsin, have little patience for lamenting what their village of 53 people doesn’t have.
