Starting the show with good news, for the time being a deal has been met to fund WisconsinEye, so folks can see what happens in the Capitol. The work isn't over, but this is a good start from where they were at the beginning of the year. We also introduce you to Michael Alfonso, running for Congress in the 7th District and there's a fun little fact about him that sets him apart from the others. Then we welcome Dr. Kristin Lyerly back to the show and she is discussing the reaction from the Green Bay community over the shooting death of Alex Pretti, who grew up in the city. She also brings up the support from the bike community over this matter. We close out the hour on the matter of measles in Wisconsin, as cases arise and information from the CDC is now compromised, we must seek out credible sources regarding vaccinations.
