There’s a new bill in Congress that aims to support domestic hardwood products. Wisconsin manufacturers are hopeful it will pass through. The bill would create a Hardwood Products Access and Development Program. This program would give grants to fund research to show consumers the health and environmental benefits of products, such as flooring and cabinets.

Groundhog Day may be today, but it came early in Washington. You would think that legislation deporting migrants who endanger the financial well-being of Americans by stealing their Social Security numbers, undermining public safety by driving drunk, or leading Border Patrol agents on potentially deadly high-speed chases would be no brainers, right?

Wisconsin Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany hosted a listening session on Thursday, Jan. 25, at American Legion Post 80 in New Richmond, where he presented a timeline of the ongoing investigation of President Joe Biden family’s involvement with “financial transactions that were flagged as suspicious activity.” Then, Tiffany answered the audience’s questions regarding the investigation and a variety of other national and state concerns.

I want to thank everyone who came out to the six listening sessions I hosted this week in Oneida, Wood, Marathon, Barron, Polk, and St. Croix County.
