For our 100th episode of the Battleground Wisconsin Podcast we welcome back original panelist Tanya Atkinson, Executive Director of Planned Parenthood of WI. We discuss the GOP's bill (SB 206) to mandate medically unnecessary vaginal ultrasounds for women seeking abortions. We also cover the latest on the Walker BadgerCare scandal, more turnover at Walker's failed jobs agency, the GOP tax cut for the wealthy and tax increase for disabled Vets, a new campaign finance bill that increases legal bribery, and the undemocratic limits to the fair use of WisconsinEye videos of state legislative proceedings.

Recall the War on Women
Battleground Wisconsin Podcast #41
The panel discusses the the latest recall news, including right wing efforts to discredit the John Doe investigation, on-going Waukesha County election problems, and the conservative conspiracy to undercut the legitimacy of the recall. We also discuss the escalating war on women in Wisconsin and nationally, the attack on equal pay, as well as panelist Dana Schultz's recent television encounter with misogynist state senator Glenn Grothman. The panel also examines the conservative aversion to tax fairness, including Walker's hypocritical stance on tax cheats, and preview tax day events coming up next week. |
