Welcome to the Civic Media Spotlight! To begin this hour, on Matenaer on Air, Jane and Greg talk about an article from The Wisconsin Examine and break down how much the average household will get from the tax cut in the new Wisconsin state budget (spoiler alert: It's the surplus).

Then on the Todd Allbaugh Show, he begins to talk about a conversation dealing with RFK Jr.'s cuts to mRNA research. Vaccines using mRNA saved millions of lives during the COVID-19 pandemic, and research surrounding them was promising for cancer treatment.

And to wrap up the week, John and Gordy talk with Mike McCabe, author of "Miracles Across County Q" as well as an executive director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, about farmers losing their labor force because of immigration due to the Egg Bill. They mention how many farmers are filing for bankruptcy and the reasons behind the madness.
