  • Ask the D.C. Council to Vote in Favor of One City, One License for all!
    After unanimously winning an amendment to the Driver's Safety Amendment Act of 2013, which would ensure equal and unmarked driver's licenses for all D.C. residents, residents of D.C. are pushing for a veto-proof majority for the final read of the bill on November 5, 2013. If passed and signed by the Mayor, all residents of D.C. will be eligible for a driver's license or identification card starting in May 2014. Join us in making a call to the D.C. Councilmembers sitting on the fence, and ask them to vote yes on the Drivers Safety Amendment Act of 2013: Mary Cheh: (202) 724-8062; Phil Mendelsohn: (202) 724-8032; Yvette Alexander: (202) 724-8068; Jack Evans: (202) 724-8058; Kenyan McDuffie: (202) 724-8028; Vincent Orange: (202) 724-8174; Muriel Bowser: (202) 724-8052; Marion Barry: (202) 724-8045; Anita Bonds: (202) 724-8064; David Catania: (202) 724-7772 "Hi, I am calling to ask that Councilmember vote yes in favor of equal, unmarked driver's licenses for all D.C. residents. I urge Councilmember to support an amendment to the Mayor's bill to ensure that undocumented immigrants living in the District will not be stigmatized by a marked driver's license. Please vote yes on the Driver's Safety Amendment Act of 2013."

  • WI Public Television for NW WI
    I have been paying money to MN WDSE TV for years. At one point they seemed interested in airing WI programming before the signals were split. That no longer seems to be true. They continue to collect money from NW WI's residents for pledges and they don't seem to care about giving WI residents even a hint of WI news.

  • Keep the AG center in Baldwin
    COUNTY BOARD NEEDS TO HEAR FROM YOU A lot of changes have been quietly happening in St. Croix County, and then, after the fact, the people find out what's happened and it's too late to turn back the clock. The fact that the administration committee decided to list the Agricultural Services and Education Center for sale is one of those changes. After years of past county supervisors and others planning the perfect office building for FSA/NRCS and the extension offices in the center of the county in Baldwin, a committee of 5 people who live along the St. Croix River, just 15 years later decided that it would be something that could be sold in order to have money to pay for the County Market building that was purchased to house the Health & Human Services and ADRC offices. The citizens of St. Croix County were not made aware of this because on the county agendas it was just listed "Capital Projects." That doesn't give any indication that they were planning to put the building up for sale. In the past, referendums for other issues didn't count for anything. The county board didn't listen to the people. Now the people haven't even been considered. Even though a study had been made about the Ag Center just three years ago, stating that it was in the perfect spot to serve the users of the services, this was not even considered by the committee. They were just looking at dollars instead of service. Because an appraisal showed that the property is worth more than a million dollars, it was decided that's where the board could get some money to pay for their other recent purchase of the County Market building in New Richmond, not figuring how much it would cost to move them elsewhere and how inconvenient it would be for the people that use the Ag Center. The thought that they can work from their cars with laptops just does not make sense. The extension staff needs files and space and a place to meet and hold workshops, lectures, etc. The board originally started the fiasco by not renewing the lease with the federal offices that rent from the county in the Ag Center. Being they failed to complete the paperwork on time, the federals started looking elsewhere to rent. The county was getting $13 a sq. ft., but wanted to double that to $25. Even if they wanted to raise the rent a small amount, say even to $18 a sq. ft, it would be enough to cover the cost of the maintenance which is $55,000 a year. But they wouldn't negotiate, so that left the federals with nothing else to do but look elsewhere. So now if the federals move out of the Ag Center, there is no income from that building, just expense for upkeep. And moving the extension offices to the County Courthouse in Hudson, which is crowded enough, would be more of a problem and they would have to spend money adding on to make room for everything. The county still has a about a week in which they could initiate renegotiations with the federals, but they have to act on it now. So bottom line is: If it's not broken, don't fix it! The Ag Center is in the perfect location for the people it serves. The 19 board members are the ones who will make the final vote to sell or not to sell. The majority of the people who use the Ag Center are not in Hudson, they're on the eastern two-thirds of the county. There have been too many decisions made affecting people's lives without consulting those people that are affected.

  • Democrats: Stand strong against Tea Party Republicans
    The Republican shutdown is a serious assault to our democratic form of government. For a small group of extremists to blackmail us to change a law, or to achieve some minority political objective, is not democracy. Republican extremism has impacted us all in this way.

  • Reverse the USTA National Rule 2.06A
    The new national rule, 2.06A, that has just been instituted will have a negative impact on the upcoming mixed and women's/men's seasons. Leagues will fall apart and/or have considerably fewer teams, captains will resign due to the headache of finding players, people will not have teams to join due to the restrictions and teams not having made nationals will have to dispand because of various individuals who did make nationals. Lastly and most importantly, the USTA's mission statement is"To promote and develop the growth of tennis". Do you think this new rule fits into the mission statement of the USTA?
