Satya Rhodes-Conway
Budget Battles and Childcare Challenges
Maggie and Political Editor Dan Shafer unpack Wisconsin’s escalating budget crisis, focusing on the looming collapse of childcare funding as subsidies near expiration. With Republicans stalling budget negotiations, Governor Tony Evers is urged to take a firmer stand to protect working families from the growing threat of childcare deserts. Maggie calls on him to harness public support to defend education, childcare, and other vital services. Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway joins the conversation with "Broad Appeal" to highlight how state and federal budget decisions affect local communities, from housing to shared revenue. Mayor Rhodes-Conway urges us all to get involved and help shape a more equitable future.
