Welcome to 2024 where our pivotal battleground state elections will again take center stage. We jump in and dissect this week's news the GOP Legislative leadership asks the Wisconsin Supreme Court to reconsider their redistricting decision; a new court ruling allows clerks to correct minor errors on absentee ballots; and a brewery owner sues to remove Trump from the Wisconsin ballot under the 14th Amendment. In a revealing and shameless display of voter suppression and encouragement of drain brain, the GOP leaders introduce a bill encouraging UW students to not vote in Wisconsin. Legislative Republicans to potential long term residents, “We don't want you here. Go home!” Robert does his best to fill in details on the policy positions of Senator Tammy Baldwin's likely opponent, multimillionaire businessman and perennial candidate Eric Hovde. In climate news Wisconsin trails badly on solar adoption. Will Governor Evers use the huge investments offered by the Biden Administration to close the gap with neighboring states? Also, Insulin prices plunge for Wisconsinites due to a little known provision of President Biden's American Rescue Plan. We close with a discussion of a new labor organizing drive by over 100 workers at Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin and encourage the organization's board of directors to recognize the union and move forward with a more powerful organization prepared to deliver on its critical mission.

HE HASN'T HIT BOTTOM YETA poll from left-leaning news outlet CNBC, in collaboration with Change Research, is proving that there is no bottom for Joe Biden's job approval. Data in here is so bad for Biden, it's worth digging into:56% of voters disapprove of Biden's job as President. His average disapproval was just 36% when he took office last year.Biden's handling of the economy is the main factor driving his plunging poll numbers:60% disapprove of Biden's handling of the economy72% say they disapprove of his handling of the price of everyday goods66% disapprove of his efforts to help their wallets56% disapprove of Biden's handling of the stock market, despite all three major indexes posting double-digit gains in 2021On the last stat, CNBC says that voters not giving Biden credit for the market in 2021 points to a larger problem for Democrats in 2022: "The party can't seem to convince voters that things are better than they were 12 months ago."Biden is losing support on Covid, the one issue he polled well in. And why wouldn't he? He ran on "shutting down the virus" yet a year later, the U.S. recorded over 1 million new cases in a single day. VIDEO (https://www.facebook.com/100007054119886/posts/3122528817992225/)Here's what voters think:55% say they disapprove of Biden's handling of Covid-1950% of voters say Biden has "gone too far" in his Covid policiesMoney can't buy you love: The survey asked voters how they felt about Biden's American Rescue Plan which passed last year and cost us $1.9 trillion:58% of Biden voters say it 'made no difference' or made them 'worse off"99% of Trump voters say it 'made no difference' or made them 'worse off'The final point I'll leave you with: The poll asked Americans what their top national issue are. Number one on the list was the economy. Way down at number six was Covid - the issue Biden has staked his entire presidency on.

President Biden's American Rescue Plan is designed to provide relief to Americans and stimulate the economy. The plan ultimately granted Tribes authorization to use these funds to do the same in their jurisdictions. The Oglala Sioux Tribe went live recently with their COVID-10 Household Economic Assistance Program that will provide assistance to eligible tribal members whose households have been negatively affected by COVID. SDPB's Richard Two Bulls joins us with more. At Sunday's CPAC in Dallas, Governor Kristi Noem kept up her vocal concerns about the threat of teaching students certain concepts she claims to be part of a Marxist indoctrination effort in the public school system. Some say the perception of a supposed Marxist indoctrination effort is resulting in an actual effort by conservatives to politicize history and civics education. SDPB's Joshua Haiar reports. Governor Kristi Noem is defending her pandemic response and challenging other Republic governors to be honest about

There are important tax changes coming this summer for families. Specifically, the child tax credit will enable families to get advanced payments. This is a change from prior years where the credit was calculated and paid out at tax time. The credit is not a new credit, it's an enhanced credit as part of President Biden's American Rescue Plan, signed into law in March 2021.  The purpose of the child tax credit is to help lift families out of poverty, but like many tax provisions, it can be complicated.   On today's episode of the Taxgirl podcast, Kelly is joined by Elaine Maag and Professor Francine Lipman to explain the 2021 tax changes for families, especially the child tax credit. Elaine is a Principal Research Associate at the Brookings Institution Tax Policy Center, where she studies income support programs with a particular interest in how tax policy supports low and middle income families. She is a member of The Tax Policy and Poverty Research Network, and a member of The National Academy's Insurance Panel on assured income. Professor Lipman teaches tax courses at the Boyd School of Law, UNLV. She has previous experience as an accountant, a lawyer, a teacher, and a scholar. She is an elected member of the American Law Institute, The American College of Tax Council, and The American Bar Foundation. Professor Lipman is also an Editor and former Committee Chair for the tax section of The American Bar Association. Listen to Kelly, Elaine, and Professor Lipman talk about the child tax credit: What is new about the child tax credit, how is it different from the credit we know and love from years prior? The margin of increase in credit payments per child. How will this change affect families that don't traditionally file a tax return? How to get in touch with the IRS regarding the change via toll free phone line or online portal. In terms of the new advance monthly payments, do we know what will happen if those payments don't start even when you're entitled to them? The IRS will be creating a separate user portal to update personal information. Does the IRS know how it will be handling disputes regarding who gets to claim dependents with this change? If your income is under $40K annually and you're a single parent, you're probably within the safe harbor.  How many of these changes apply only for 2021, and which ones are here to stay? In the wake of the pandemic, why are some of these 2021 tax changes only temporary? There's been a lot of criticism on the tax professional side about prioritization of projects and the timeline that payments are delivered. How is the IRS encouraging low income families and serial non-filers to begin filing this year? In comparison to the stimulus check program, how is the child tax credit different and where does it show up on a tax return? The credit will be paid half in advance and then reconciled on the return, what sources are recommended for learning more information about the tax credit?

This week's show covers a variety of topics: Climate change activist's 800 mile walk to Tallahassee, Olmeca's community lecture and concert at the Van Wezel, and the City Commission's discussion of budget plans in light of Biden's American Rescue Plan.

A leading pediatrician responds to the approval of the Pfizer vaccine for 12 to 15 year olds.Then, with vaccination rates declining statewide, we examine hesitancy in a rural, majority white community.Plus, we hear from the U.S. Assistant Secretary of Health on the special enrollment period for health coverage though the ACA marketplace.Segment 1:Parents in Mississippi can begin scheduling a coronavirus vaccination for children age 12 to 15. The Pfizer coronavirus vaccine has received emergency use authorization from the FDA, and has now gained approval by the CDC for use in the adolescent age group. The decision comes at a time of declining vaccination rates in Mississippi. Health officials say around a quarter of the state's nearly three million residents are under the age of 16. Dr. Anita Henderson is President of the Mississippi Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics. She tells our Kobee Vance the authorization means clinics and hospitals already offering the Pfizer shot can begin vaccinating eligible children now. Segment 2:Mississippi, along with Louisiana and Alabama, have the lowest coronavirus vaccination rates in the country. That's according to data from the Kaiser Family Foundation. Gulf States Newsroom health reporter Shalina Chatlani has been following this story and traveled to North Mississippi to ask people why they were against the shot. She's joining me today to talk about some of those conversations. Segment 3:The White House is celebrating a public health milestone this week. New enrollment for health coverage during a special period made possible through President Biden's American Rescue Plan has topped one million Americans. The legislation also lowered premiums for nine million Americans who buy their coverage through the Affordable Care Act, and also reduced deductibles by nearly 90 percent. Dr. Rachel Levine is the U.S. Assistant Secretary of Health. She tells our Michael Guidry the special enrollment period is one step in the administration's goal of making health care a right - not a privilege.

Leslie is joined by Steve Sallman, Director of the United Steelworkers (USW) Health, Safety and Environment Department. Ahead of next week's Worker's Memorial Day, Leslie and Steve discuss and honor workers lost to COVID-19, and other occupational hazards. Workers' Memorial Day is marked every year on April 28th to honor and remember the workers killed, injured, disabled and made ill from exposures to hazards at work. Due to the ongoing pandemic, this year's Workers Memorial Day is like no other experienced in the United States, Canada and globally. There are unknown numbers of workers who have died from COVID-19. Some were essential workers, and many have contracted it at work during these unprecedented times. We mourn and fight for them, and the loss of all victims of this cruel disease. We may never know the real statistics as it relates to occupational exposure, but the public statistics as of today are bleak: •           142,237,637 Global Confirmed cases •           3,033,084 Global Deaths  •           31,739,932 U.S. Confirmed cases •           567,736 U.S. Deaths During the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of workers have and continue to risk their lives and thousands have died. The Guardian recently reported that more than 3,600 American health care workers have died of COVID-19 in the line of work since mid-March of last year.     - Most who died were under the age of 60 (despite the median age of death from Covid-19 in the general population being 78)     - The majority of health care workers who died from COVID-19 were people of color     - A large number of those who died were worried about not having enough personal protective equipment (PPE) Workers in other essential industries have also suffered disproportionately from COVID-19, facing a 20% greater chance of dying during the pandemic than before it.Last summer, food processing facilities became COVID hotspots as workers performed job duties in close proximity for prolonged amounts of time. On top of this, there seemed to be a callous disregard for the danger workers put themselves in each day including an independent investigation finding that managers at a Tyson plant were placing bets on how many workers would get infected.  We know this public crisis is also an occupational crisis. Since the beginning of this pandemic, the USW and other unions have strived to make workplaces and workers safer. Ever since the pandemic started, unions pushed OSHA to issue an Emergency Temporary Standard that would require employers to provide infectious disease preparedness and response plans for employees. The USW also worked with employers across their industries making a series of common sense recommendations and some employers have been taking steps to keep workers safe with the assistance of the USW with Recommended Controls to Reduce Worker Exposures to COVID-19 and fought to make sure workers have access to PPE. The Biden administration is doing important work keeping workers safe and crucially, OSHA is no longer missing in action. OSHA has a new targeted program, but they will also prioritize opening inspections to complaints from high hazard worksites including health care, meat and more. President Biden's American Rescue Plan included much needed funding for expanded testing, contact tracing and research as well as for PPE. It provided for vaccine supplies and distribution. All of this helps keep workers and their families safer. COVID-19 has certainly dominated the discussion and we must remember, we still have many other hazards that are killing, injuring and making workers ill. This year OSHA, which was established by the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, turns 50, first opening its doors on April 28, 1971. During its initial decade, OSHA issued the first standards for asbestos, lead, carcinogens, and cotton dust. The OSHA Training Institute, safety and health training grants, the On-Site Consultation Program, State Plans, and whistleblower protections for workplace safety are also established. As we reflect on 50 years of history, there remains much to do, including a critical need to undo what the Trump administration did to the Chemical Safety Board, which plays a critical role in worker safety.  “Former President Trump spent four years undermining the Chemical Safety Board and left office with only one member remaining on this five-person board,” U.S. Sen. Tom Carper (D., Del.), chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, which oversees the CSB, said in a statement. “Without a quorum, the board is currently hampered in its ability to effectively do its job.” Carper, an ally of President Joe Biden's, said he looks forward to working with the administration to fill the CSB vacancies soon “so that the board can get back to its mission of keeping communities and workers safe.” But the wheels of Congress move slowly, and even if the administration nominates board members quickly, it typically takes many months to vet and approve appointments. Workers' Memorial Day the USW is a time not only to honor not only those who lost their lives either because of a workplace incident or COVID exposure, but also to recommit ourselves to renew the promise of safe jobs for all workers.

Speaker Pelosi famously once said "We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it” - so now that Congress has passed President Biden's American Rescue Plan, just what is in it? A massive amount of spending that the professional politicians didn't have the spine to pay for so it will be the responsibility of your children and your grandchildren. To put this unsustainable and reckless credit card spending into perspective, in 2018, the amount of public debt per person in this country was just under $50,000.00. In 2021, it has jumped to $67,000 for every American. And according to the Heritage Foundation, a baby born today will have over $111,000 in debt by the time he or she turns 18 and that will grow to almost $200,000 by age 30. Think about that for a second. Before our children have done anything in life, before they have even taken their first precious breath, the idiots in Washington are suffocating them under an avalanche of debt that will be impossible to escape from.
