 Wisconsin navigates a mix of political tensions, economic growth, and fiscal pressures this week. Top headlines include ongoing battles over congressional maps, with Law Forward's Jeff Mandell eyeing 2028 for fairer lines rather than 2026 midterms, as he told WISN 12's UpFront[1]. Public broadcaster WisconsinEye has gone off the air due to funding woes[1], prompting Democrats to propose a $2 million taxpayer-funded state replacement[24]. In the attorney general race, Republican Eric Toney criticized Josh Kaul for delays at the state crime lab, citing longer DNA and toxicology wait times[1]. A Dane County judge ruled that Trump aides must face trial in the 2020 fake electors case[1].

The 2025 legislative session wrapped with pro-growth wins for commercial real estate, cutting costs and boosting development certainty[2]. Governor Tony Evers' State Building Commission approved $185 million in projects, including a new Type 1 Juvenile Correctional Facility in Fitchburg to replace Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake by 2029, plus infrastructure repairs across universities and agencies[4]. School property taxes are surging 7.8% this December—the largest hike since 1992—totaling $476 million more, driven by revenue limits, frozen state aid, and voter-approved referendums in districts like Oshkosh and De Pere, per the Wisconsin Policy Forum[5].

Economically, the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation backed Cascades' $6 million Eau Claire expansion, creating 36 jobs and bolstering the paper industry[3]. Waupun joined WEDC's Main Street Cohort to revitalize its downtown[7], while Appleton Area School District completed major STEM and facility upgrades[8]. No major weather events have disrupted the state recently.

Listeners, looking ahead, watch for the crime lab debate in the AG race, property tax trends amid more referendums, and construction progress on the juvenile facility by late 2028. The 2025-26 legislative session continues with committee hearings.
