According to WisPolitics, Democratic leaders in the Assembly say newly drawn electoral maps give them “a path to legislative power” in the 2026 elections, after picking up 14 seats in 2024 and eyeing further gains under fairer district lines.[Milwaukee Journal Sentinel via WisPolitics] WisconsinEye reports that lawmakers are also busy on policy, with recent floor sessions taking up bills on youth organization access to schools, data-sharing grants for law enforcement, and rules on participation in interscholastic athletics, signaling continued debates over education access and public safety.[WisconsinEye]
In the executive branch, The Daily Reporter notes that Governor Tony Evers has vetoed a bill that would have delayed enforcement of updated commercial building codes based on the 2021 International Building Code, arguing the state should not postpone modern safety standards for new construction.[The Daily Reporter] At the same time, the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation reports that Evers has launched the “Shop Small Wisconsin” season through December 31, highlighting more than $4.7 million in small business development grants this year and new HUBZone designations meant to boost historically underserved communities.[WEDC]
On the economic front, Engineering News-Record reports that Meta plans to invest more than $1 billion in a 700,000-square-foot AI data center campus in Beaver Dam, positioning Wisconsin as a growing hub for data infrastructure and construction employment.[Engineering News-Record] Wisconsin Public Radio adds that some residents are pushing back, organizing under the “Dairyland, not data land” banner as they question land use, environmental impacts, and community character around these large data center projects.[Wisconsin Public Radio]
Infrastructure and education are also in motion. The Public Service Commission and Governor Evers announce that Wisconsin’s final Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment proposal has been approved by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, unlocking more than $1 billion in federal and matching funds to extend high-speed internet to every eligible home and business, with construction expected to begin in 2026.[PSC of Wisconsin] The Universities of Wisconsin system says it is preparing for its “next era of growth,” advancing major capital projects like UW–Madison’s new engineering building, UW–Milwaukee’s health sciences facility, and expanded mental health services across campuses.[Universities of Wisconsin] WEDC is also inviting public school districts to apply for Fab Labs grants, aiming to fund up to 10 districts to build or expand fabrication labs that support hands-on STEM education.[WEDC]
In community and public safety news, DrydenWire reports that Wisconsin lawmakers are urging Congress to end federal emissions testing requirements in seven southeastern counties, while federal prosecutors secured a seven-year sentence for a Wausau man involved in fentanyl trafficking, underscoring ongoing efforts to balance regulation, public health, and crime reduction.[DrydenWire]
Looking Ahead, listeners should watch how the broadband buildout is prioritized between rural and urban areas, how the Beaver Dam data center and other tech projects reshape local economies and landscapes, and how the new legislative maps influence both policy debates and voter engagement in the run-up to 2026.
