Green Bay tax bills will add new line on school voucher payments after hours of debate After hours of debate, Green Bay councilmembers approved a change to tax bills, adding information on school voucher payments. Here's what to know.

Good news for all who care about democracy! ONLY public schools accept and serve all students and are held accountable to taxpayers to make sure they do so responsibly. ALL schools that receive public funds should be held to the same standards of accountability and transparency.

I’ve spent my life fighting for Wisconsin’s kids. I’ve been a teacher, a principal, a superintendent, and the state superintendent. I know Wisconsin's kids and our schools—this decision would be catastrophic for them. There's no question. I’m sorry, but this is bullshit.

Thanks to @mteaunion.bsky.social for this brilliant video highlighting the spirit of frustration and commitment to doing better by our kids that marked our Day of Action rally on Friday. It's time to put an end to this gap-widening cycle and demand a better budget. Join us!!

Wisconsin lawmakers pit neighbor against neighbor with every school referendum | Opinion Like some James Bond movie villain, the Legislature has set up a diabolical game for citizens to play every election cycle with school referendums.

We need to fix the broken state funding system. Don't believe the lies. If Wisconsin was adequately funding public schools, we wouldn't have to constantly raise local taxes to keep the lights on.
