White smoke has been seen at the Vatican, and we have a new Pope! Illinois native Cardinal Robert Prevost shall now be known as Pope Leo XIV. All signs point to a continuation of the late Pope Francis’s more progressive views.

Here in Wisconsin, we have some breaking news as well. According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Democratic Elias Law Group is filing with the Wisconsin Supreme Court to reconsider the constitutionality of our state’s congressional districts. Nick Ramos, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, joins Todd in-studio to provide his take on this legal challenge.

At the bottom of the hour, we welcome State Representative Amaad Rivera-Wagner to the program! He proudly represents Green Bay, having previously served as Mayor Eric Genrich’s Chief of Staff. After briefly catching up on some of the great things going on in Green Bay since the NFL draft, Rep. Rivera-Wagner shifts to a more serious topic. DOGE cuts to the federal government have slashed AmeriCorps, the domestic version of the Peace Corps. Green Bay is home to Wisconsin’s first municipal branch of AmeriCorps, the Green Bay Conservation Corps. This organization was also defunded, and Rep. Rivera-Wagner is fighting to raise awareness and keep this program open. His efforts have been supported by people all across the political spectrum, keeping the GBCC open at least through August.
