Milwaukee is witnessing tremendous growth and activity. New buildings, outdoor spaces, attractions, and landscaping are adding to the fabric of our neighborhoods. These awards celebrate the innovative efforts that make our city a great place to live, work, and have fun.

@mantymayor @reptittl @SenatorDevin @GovEvers @LeagueWIMunis Thanks, Mayor Nickels, and the 100+ local leaders who made the trip to Madison to explain the need. Let’s get it done!

[Jerry Deschane @DeschaneJerry]

Bill McElroy, Assistant City Engineer for Chippewa Falls, did a great job talking about the good work getting done, “but there’s a long list of other projects that are still waiting.”

[TDA Wisconsin @TDAWisconsin]

Great turnout at first TDA roundtable. Thanks to all for attending.

[Jason Stein @jasonmdstein]

"We're in a better position now than we've been in past 15 to 20 years," Mayor Johnson says of the possibility of working with lawmakers in the state Capitol, including Republicans, but acknowledges the political and other difficulties ahead in reaching any deal.

The @WisPolicyForum will be tracking this fall's municipal referenda to local voters the same as we do with K-12 school referenda.

[Cavalier Johnson @CavalierJohnson]

Yes, we do have to do something about shared revenue! @GovEvers is right — local government is where the rubber hits the road. Quality of life services all across Wisconsin depend on common sense approaches from Madison to fund services delivered by local government.

[Wisconsin Policy Forum @WisPolicyForum]

Our president Rob Henken walks our Policy in a Pub attendees through the findings of our new report -- to be released tomorrow -- which finds the fiscal condition of @CityofMKE is approaching "a day of reckoning."

[Mike Hallquist @mnhallquist]

Thanks to all the candidates who threw their hat in the ring this spring cycle!

Democracy only works when there's fair competition in the marketplace of ideas.

@katierosenberg High five all poll workers!

[Jerry Deschane @DeschaneJerry]

Way better than, “This meeting will come to order.” Adults have so much to learn from 7-year olds.

[Eric Genrich @MayorGenrich]

Vote!

[Jerry Deschane @DeschaneJerry]

Today is Local Election Day in Wisconsin. When you go to cast your ballot, take a look around at your neighbors who have volunteered to operate that polling place and thank them for their service. They are your front line of democracy.

[League of Wis Munis @LeagueWIMunis]

The League’s @DeschaneJerry talked with @PBSWI Frederica Freyberg today. As he said, “The people running local elections are your neighbors - the people you see in the grocery store.”

Jack is the Elon Musk of 2040.

[Jim Healy @_JRHEALY]

Me: Jack, what is the capital of Wisconsin?

Jack: “W”?

Me: 🥴 🤦🏻

[Jerry Deschane @DeschaneJerry]

@MikeHaasWi @WI_Elections Mike, didn’t I see a statistic somewhere that said 1 of every 6 election officials in the country is a Wisconsin election official? That’s a pretty people-intense system.

[Jerry Deschane @DeschaneJerry]

@LeagueWIMunis @WisCounties Wisconsin’s local clerks have been guardians, inventors, mediators and monitors of elections for decades. They deserve all of our thanks for a job well done.

[Jerry Deschane @DeschaneJerry]

Congratulations, Ambassador Barrett.
