Good morning, Whitewater
On this day in 1996, then Gov. Thompson signed Wisconsin Works, W-2, into law. Wisconsin’s law was an example for federal and state welfare reform.
The National Weather Service predicts showers and thunderstorms throughout the day. The Farmers’ Almanac says stormy conditions, so there’s some agreement between the two.
There are no public meetings listed for the City of Whitewater today.
News of Dr. Steinhaus’s unsuccessful candidacy at the Holmen School District has begun to circulate. Although this is not a news site, but one of commentary, FREE WHITEWATER posted this news two days before it appeared elsewhere.
(I’ll also note that Dr. Steinhaus subsequently sent a letter to District staff confirming her unsuccessful candidacy in the Holmen District. Accounts appearing two days after the one at FREE WHITEWATER miss this intervening development.)
I’ll post a double Register Watch™ — one on the Register’s police series, and one on the rest of the paper. It will appear tonight and Saturday.
