Here’s some good news…crime in Milwaukee decreased 12.3% overall through the first nine months of this year when compared with the same period in 2008, marking the seventh consecutive quarter in which crime has dropped in the city, according to data released Monday by the Police Department. That’s certainly good news for Milwaukee, [...]

The latest issue of Milwaukee Magazine is out on newstands and available on the internet, and Sen. Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin): “Everybody hates her, even the Republicans. She’s just [...] Posted by Zach W on January 8, 2009, at 6:28 pm
A few days ago, I asked if State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) would give back her 5.3% pay raise for this year, and along with that blog entry, I sent Sen. Lazich an email. Today I got an answer to my question: Dear Zachary: Thank you for your e-mail about the legislative pay raise. In the [...] Posted by Zach W on January 6, 2009, at 4:22 am
As a part of their continuing efforts to raise awareness on drunk druving in Wisconsin, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel sent a survey to Wisconsin’s legislators asking them a series of questions regarding alcohol-related policy issues. The MJS posted the results of those surveys, and as I was perusing the results, I came across this [...] Posted by Zach W on January 4, 2009, at 9:25 am
A week ago today, I blogged about the 5.3% raise state legislators were due to receive this week, and I noted State Rep. Bob Ziegelbauer (D-Manitowoc) had already indicated he planned on giving his raise back. Now sure, Ziegelbauer’s gesture is wholly symbolic, given the fact that he makes over $78,000 a year as [...] Posted by Zach W on December 29, 2008, at 12:53 pm
State lawmakers are due to get a 5.3% pay raise effective January 1, 2009, boosting their yearly salary to 49,943 a year. State Rep. Bob Ziegelbauer (D-Manitowoc) has already said he’s going to give back his pay raise, and shortly after Rep. Ziegelbauer’s announcement, a few other legislators followed suit in announcing they too [...] Posted by Zach W on June 20, 2008, at 1:56 pm
Wisconsin State Senator Mary Lazich is obviously not among my favorite legislators. Putting aside her outrageous belief that Wal-Mart should run our health care system, I also take issue with the conduct of her staff, including the propensity at least one of her staffers has for abusing his vacation leave. Given my own problems with [...] Posted by Zach W on June 9, 2008, at 12:52 pm
While she doesn’t come out and say it directly, that’s the impression I get from reading a recent blog entry by State Senator Mary Lazich. Now while one can’t be completely sure if Senator Lazich wrote that blog entry – or if it was written by Kevin Fischer, her loyal aide – it’s curious [...] Posted by Zach W on April 27, 2008, at 9:13 pm
First of all, many thanks to Cindy Kilkenny over at Fairly Conservative for all her hard work to help break this story and bring to light a gross abuse of taxpayer dollars, not to mention a willful violation of state employee leave policies. As first reported by Cindy, it’s been confirmed Kevin Fischer, a legislative aide [...] Posted by Zach W on April 12, 2008, at 2:30 pm
For the past few months, Cindy Kilkenny over at Fairly Conservative has been blogging about the escapades of Kevin Fischer. Among the topics Cindy’s blogged about has been the suspicion that Fischer has been blogging in his personal blog on state time. After careful examination of Fischer’s time sheets, Cindy has come to [...] |
