We’ll update the progress of state budget negotiations at the Capitol and ask Joe Zepecki about our politics being so broken that moderate legislators have to let their most extreme colleagues drag down their progress rather than working across the aisle to do things they know would do the most good. And we’ll have our usual check on Civic Media stories being covered around southeast Wisconsin with Earl Ingram and northwest Wisconsin with James Kelly.
