The MacIver Report: Wisconsin This Week

MacIver Report (Mar. 7, 2025) - Week in Review

The Wisconsin State Legislature debated the ROFR bill on Tuesday that would establish a monopoly in the private sector for Wisconsin-based electric transmission companies, and on this edition of the MacIver Report, Bill Osmulski and Michael Lucas focus on one exchange between a lobbyist and the committee chair about "laissez faire, Adam Smith capitalism.” They also talk about Gov. Evers' plans to expand Medicaid and replace lead pipes in the state budget, and the latest Marquette Law School Poll. As usual, Bill and Mike take plenty of side trips to highlight MacIver's free market philosophy and how it relates to current events in Wisconsin.
