How many of you have experienced attending a political caucus? In this case, I'll be referring to the Republican caucus recently held in Osseo, representing the 3rd district, which consists of
nineteen neighboring Western Wisconsin counties.
It was my first, so I thought I'd share the experience with you.
Exciting news – Wisconsin Family Council’s 2025-2026 Legislative Directory is now available! This easy-to-use guide includes contact information for Wisconsin’s state officials and congressional delegation so you can easily connect with your elected representatives and engage in the legislative process at the state and federal levels.
I wanted to make sure you saw IRG’s latest poll in its public polling project, broken exclusively on the Dan O’Donnell Show. The poll examines how and why voters make the decisions they did in the Spring elections.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court just ruled that Gov. Tony Evers' 400-year property tax increase did NOT violate the state constitution. This is an outrageous overreach and shows just how far Gov. Evers, Attorney General Josh Kaul and the progressives on the Supreme Court will go now that they have control of levers of power in Madison.
It also goes to show just how important the MacIver Institute is. We are on the front lines holding these folks accountable by providing critical research and insightful commentary on the issues that affect you every day.
Just a few weeks ago on March 28th, Gov. Evers vetoed a bill that would have required state education officials to restore the original student testing benchmarks and undo the new testing standards implemented by State Superintendent Jill Underly, despite criticizing the move in the past.
I am proud to be the lead co-author of bipartisan legislation that will help improve the quality of life for those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and lower their healthcare costs.

I recently had a great conversation with friends that helped me put words to something I’ve believed for a long time—not just in politics, but in life: treat it like a football game.
I played high school football. Those who know me are probably chuckling right now—yes, I was undersized and not exactly a star player. Think Rudy, minus the movie ending. But I loved the strategy, the teamwork, and the idea that every single player matters. I even managed a couple of interceptions in JV because the quarterbacks didn't notice me out on the field!
When it comes to the Second Amendment most Americans probably think first about the National Rifle Association, or the NRA. The NRA, founded in 1871, is known for its gun rights lobby and emphasis on firearms safety. The NRA may be the biggest (reportedly millions of members) and the best public advocate for defending our Second Amendment rights, and is among the most influential advocacy organizations (for any cause) in the United States. Come election time, the NRA routinely publishes a respected Voter Guide. But the NRA is not really alone!
In the lead up to last Monday’s Supreme Court race in Wisconsin, Senator Johnson explained how the Left is resorting to the courts and radical judges to impose their radical ideology.
