Right now, too many Wisconsinites and families face barriers to accessing healthcare—and the disparities in access for communities of color that face systemic racism, are unacceptable.

That’s why @GovEvers' #BadgerBounceback agenda expands BadgerCare/Medicaid! @Tony4WI
His 2021-2023 budget proposal will:
⚾ Provide coverage to tens of thousands of uninsured Wisconsinites and save more than $1.6 billion in state tax dollars.

⚾ Allocate over $30 million to promote community-based health equity initiatives.
⚾ Transition Wisconsin from federal to state-based insurance marketplace to increase flexibility and improve enrollment efforts.

⚾ Create a premium assistance program to help make healthcare more affordable and authorize the Department of Health Services.

#WomensHistoryMonth Kathryn Clarenbach was a leader in the modern feminist movement in the U.S. and was the founding member and the first chair of the National Organization for Women! @NationalNOW Image
Born in Sparta, Clarenbach earned her bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees at @UWMadison. After teaching at several universities, she moved back to Madison & created continuing education programs for women at UW-Extension, at a time when few careers were open to women.
Clarenbach became a fierce advocate for women’s rights in WI. She convinced Gov Reynolds to start the Commission on the Status of Women in ‘64. She worked to change policies that discriminated against women, including state laws on sexual assault, divorce & marital property.
