Less Money, Mo’ Problems (Hour 2)

March 5, 2025

It’s been more than a decade and a half since the Wisconsin Legislature’s allocation for school aid kept up with inflation. So it’s small wonder that more school districts are going to referendum on April 1. We’ll talk to leaders in Marinette and Prentice about asking local residents to raise their own property taxes to make up for what Republican lawmakers are holding back. And Congressman Mark Pocan gives us reaction to President Trump’s promise of continued carnage for the American economy.
