TRANSFORMING School Environments OUR VISION For Student Success Weaving SKILLS ROPES Relationships 2018 Annual Report Practices to Help All Students Our Vision for Student Success City Year has always been about nurturing and developing young people, from the talented students we serve to our dedicated AmeriCorps members.

We believe that all students can succeed. Supporting the success of our students goes far beyond just making sure they know how to add fractions or write a persuasive essay—students also need to know how to work in teams, how to problem solve and how to work toward a goal.

January 7Th, 2021 DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY Vice President
January 7th, 2021 DELIVERED ELECTRONICALLY Vice President Pence: The events of January 6th, 2021 will be remembered as a dark day in American history. What the country, and the world, witnessed was insurrection. Rather than accepting the results of a free and fair election, extremists stormed the United States Capitol in an attempt to overturn President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris’ victory. These were not the organic actions of a few extreme supporters. It was a siege orchestrated and encouraged by the president to throw chaos into our democratic institutions in a desperate attempt to cling to power. Let us be clear, as long as President Trump is in office, the future of our republic is in danger. Every leader in our nation must stand up and acknowledge that now is the hour we must draw the line in the sand and remove President Trump from office before further damage is done. We also want to acknowledge the work being done by the Democratic members of Wisconsin’s Congressional delegation in their support for our nation’s laws and the principles of our democracy. Since November, the president has promoted conspiracy theories, lied countless times about the results of the election, and pursued legal action to overturn the will of the people. This culminated with yesterday’s actions at the Capitol with individuals determined to cause harm in a domestic terror attack on the most significant symbol of our system of self-government. Those responsible must be held to account under federal law. Today, we are calling on you to use your authority as Vice President to invoke the 25th Amendment immediately to ensure a peaceful transition of power and to save our nation.

August 1, 2011 Wisconsin Supreme Court Decision Increases High
PROFESSIONAL DAIRY PRODUCERS OF WISCONSIN’S August 1, 2011 Wisconsin Supreme Court Decision Increases High Capacity Well Review By Jordan Lamb -- DeWitt Ross & Stevens The Wisconsin Supreme Court just issued a decision that could affect the ability to drill a high capacity well in Wisconsin. In Lake Beulah Management District v. DNR, the Supreme Court unanimously held that, despite the restrictions in Wisconsin’s high capacity well statute, the DNR has a duty to “consider the environmental impact of [any] proposed high capacity well when presented with sufficient concrete, scientific evidence of potential harm to waters of the state.” Prior to this decision, Wisconsin statutes only required DNR to conduct an environmental review of: (1) a high capacity well that is located in a groundwater protection area; (2) a high capacity well with a water loss of more than 95 percent of the amount of water withdrawn; or (3) a high capacity well that may have a significant environmental impact on a spring. Wis. Stat. § 281.34(4). For all other high capacity wells, approvals and recordkeeping were required, but the statute does not impose a specific requirement for an environmental review for every well. The Lake Beulah decision may affect a farmer’s ability to get an approval for a high capacity well and also may increase the potential for citizen groups to challenge the approval of wells. The decision also brings into question the effect that the high capacity well statute has with regard to providing limits on DNR’s duty and authority. The full effects of the Lake Beulah decision are not yet understood.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Senator Chris Larson July 27, 2021 608.266.7505 Once Again, GOP Failed to Close the Education
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Senator Chris Larson July 27, 2021 608.266.7505 Once Again, GOP Failed to Close the Education Gap Milwaukee, WI – Today, Republicans in the Wisconsin State Assembly conducted an extraordinary session in a failed attempt to override the Governor’s veto on Assembly Bill 369. This legislation would have ended the extended pandemic-related unemployment benefits needed by neighbors in our community one month before it expires. Given that the legislature was convening, Governor Evers saw an opportunity to have legislators close the education funding gap and called for a Special Session on education funding. Sen. Larson issued the following statement on the special session today: “After a failed attempt to override Governor Evers’ veto of AB 369, the GOP-led Legislature ignored the governor’s call to readdress the lack of school funding allocated in the recent state budget, wasting another opportunity to close the education gap. The governor had proposed investing $550 million in much-needed funds into public education, with a total of $440 million going to K-12 schools; $240 million of this for increasing per-pupil aid by $146 per student and $200 million of this into special education aids. Additionally, $110 of the $550 million would be allocated for higher education. “Republicans ended the Governor’s Special Session with not a word about education, proving yet again that they would rather play petty, political games, than addressing the needs of our children and schools. “Our kids need adequate resources to achieve a quality education. Wisconsin children have been deprived of the two-thirds funding promise for 17 years, just for it to barely be met in this year’s budget.

This was the largest class of women legislators in state history. Women now hold 31 percent of the seats in the Wlegislature. Previously, the largest number of women to serve in a session was 37, a num- ber reached in the 1989 and 2003 sessions. Including those serving in the senate and the assembly today, a total of 152 women have now been seated in the Wisconsin Legislature. Among all states, Wisconsin currently has the 22nd-highest proportion of women serv- ing in its legislature.1 This paper celebrates the service, achievements, and leadership of Wisconsin women legislators. Women in the assembly When Mildred Barber, Helen Brooks, and Helen Thompson took office in January 1925 as “assemblymen”—members of the assembly were formally renamed “representatives” in 1969 2—they became the first women to serve in the Wisconsin Legislature. Until the 1970s, no more than three women at a time served in the assembly, and during some sessions, no women served in the assembly at all.3 Of the 31 women elected to serve in 2021–22, 10 are in their first session.
