 Wisconsin listeners are watching several major stories this week, from election-related court battles and new criminal laws to billion‑dollar infrastructure and broadband investments. According to the Associated Press, three former Trump aides charged in the 2020 fake elector scheme, including attorney Jim Troupis, are now alleging judicial misconduct and asking that the Dane County judge handling their felony forgery case step aside and the case be moved, intensifying scrutiny on Wisconsin’s role in past elections. The AP reports they face 11 felony counts tied to allegedly fraudulent elector certificates.

In state policy, Finance & Commerce reports that Governor Tony Evers has vetoed Assembly Bill 450, which would have delayed enforcement of updated commercial building codes based on the 2021 International Building Code until spring 2026, arguing that further delay would harm safety, energy efficiency, and clarity for developers. WisconsinEye notes that lawmakers are also taking up issues from rulemaking reform to data‑sharing grants for law enforcement and will soon reintroduce paid family and medical leave legislation, keeping labor and regulatory debates active at the Capitol.

On public safety, the Governor has signed bipartisan Bradyn’s Law, creating a distinct crime of sexual extortion with graduated penalties and expanded victim compensation, according to a release from the Governor’s office. State documents explain that the new law allows compensation when a victim’s suicide or attempted suicide is connected to the crime, signaling a tougher stance on digital and coercive abuse.

Economically, Wisconsin is leaning into technology and connectivity. Wisconsin Public Radio reports that more than 1 billion dollars in federal funds under the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment program have been approved to reach every eligible unserved or underserved location, with fiber making up roughly three‑quarters of the technology mix and construction expected to start in 2026. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel notes this could connect about 175,000 homes and businesses and support schools, libraries, and local government facilities as “community anchor institutions.”

Business development remains strong. WisBusiness reports that five innovative startups will share up to 400,000 dollars in state SBIR Advance matching grants, supporting commercialization in areas like biohealth, renewable energy, and value‑added agriculture. Construction Owners Association news highlights two major state building projects now out to bid: a roughly 31.7 million dollar overhaul of UW‑Stout’s recreation complex and a 44.6 million dollar expansion of a Department of Health Services food service building, part of a broader push to modernize aging 1960s‑era facilities.

Looking ahead, WisconsinEye schedules show upcoming hearings on election rules, collective bargaining, and mental health policy, while broadband agencies prepare detailed engineering for statewide internet build‑outs. Political observers at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel note that both parties are already positioning for the high‑stakes 2026 legislative elections under new maps.
