On Wednesday morning the League of Progressive Seniors is hosting a press conference to protest Abele's use of his fortune to deeply undermine democracy.  It is all legal but the league believes it is a bad precedent for local elections if Abele uses his PAC to overwhelm  his critics on the Board in their races through his dark money PAC.

This event has been cancelled;Walker will not be visiting the school.

Gov. Scott Walker has signed the $100 million school safety legislation, he is still planning to visit Roosevelt Elementary on Tuesday, March 27 at 1:30 p.m. The school safety bill is more rhetoric than real change. It contains zero gun safety measures. It does NOT do enough to protect our teachers or kids. Yet our governor is coming to Tosa to pose for a photo shoot to celebrate "mission accomplished."

Drinking Liberally Tosa is now ensconced at Red Dot, 6715 W. North Ave.  We have extended hours, too: 6-9 p.m.

Your host this week will be one of Tosa's most active progressives, Craig Wentzel. Be nice to him.

Greg is out of town next week, but he'll raise a glass to be with you in spirit.

Last week, there were two major moments with S. 2155, otherwise known as the “Bank Lobbyist Act.”

On Monday, the Congressional Budget Office or “CBO,” (you might remember them as the independent budget scorekeepers from the Trumpcare fight!) analyzed S. 2155 and it was NOT pretty. The CBO determined that the bill was likely to increase the odds that government funding would go to bank bailouts.

Though many of us have teetered on the brink of despair since the Sandyhook school shooting, it appears that we are at last progressing toward changes in gun policy in America. As is often the case, the youth of America are leading.

Three anti-gun-violence protests are already planned:

Tuesday is election day and Wauwatosans have a few contested races on the ballot, most notably the race for State Supreme Court.

After a mid-winter hiatus, Drinking Liberally Tosa returns, at  new location: Red Dot, 6715 W. North Ave. New hours, too: 6 - 9 p.m.

7 pm, Wauwatosa Public Library, 7635 W. North Avenue.

RSVP here.

*Note: Sensenbrenner Retirement Party -- Starting at 6:00 before the Wauwatosa town hall, Indivisible Tosa will be hosting a retirement party for the Sensenbrenner at the Wauwatosa Public Library. Please join us for cupcakes, balloons, and party hats. The festivity will help us build our spirits before the town hall.

At this time, Sensenbrenner is not planning on retiring, but as voters we have some say in that decision!.
