 Five Milwaukee Democrats, including U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, are refusing to appear at an NAACP debate to square off against Black Republicans and an Independent, according to a letter they wrote the NAACP that was obtained by Wisconsin Right Now.
Some candidates believe the Democrats’ refusal to hear from black Republicans and an Independent at an NAACP debate would rob Milwaukee’s black community of a chance to hear a robust discussion on the issues through such a prominent platform.

 Lead Poisoning, Segregation and Slavery: An Important Historical Analysis |
 | I want to begin this article by recounting an exchange I had with Superintendent Karen Dettmer of the Milwaukee Water Works at the November 18th, 2019 On Public Health - Lead in Milwaukee: A Community-Wide Response event. During the question and answer portion of the event, I posed to the panel of experts, which included both local |
and national experts on lead poisoning, whether they thought it was the City of Milwaukee's responsibility to remove all 75,000 lead laterals with no cost to the homeowners, based on the 1872 mandate that required lead laterals to be used until 1950.

 Jay-Z | "On Thursday (July 2), the social justice sector of the mogul's Roc Nation company wrote an open letter to Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm in the XXL Magazine and Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The letter calls for the firing and prosecution of officer Joseph Mensah from the Wauwatosa Police Department.

five years, using 19 bullets in total, Team Roc said in a statement."

OPEN LETTER TO THE MILWAUKEE COMMON COUNCIL
By Get The Lead Out Coalition (GTLO)
July 7, 2020
The Get The Lead Out Coalition (GTLO) of Milwaukee supports racial and environmental justice. In that vein, we demand that Milwaukee leaders, heads of departments, the Mayor and Common Council commit to community-led efforts to create a just and equitable society that is free from racism and environmental toxins, specifically toxic lead. A City with over 77,000 lead laterals, failing lead paint, and lead in soil is unacceptable. There is no safe level of lead! Democratically drafting a comprehensive plan to remove lead infrastructure throughout the City, and investing heavily in its implementation, would be significant in fighting the double-headed dragon of pollution and racism. The City must commit to a future in which resources are spent removing the toxic legacy of lead, with funding divested from class and race based policing practices.

Dear Governor Evers,
It has come to our attention that the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has temporarily suspended all in-person recreational safety classes, including Boating, Snowmobile, ATV, Hunting, Internet Field Days and Bowhunting courses. This is alarming news to the millions of sportsmen across our state and would be incredibly detrimental to participation in our outdoor recreational activities at a time when our citizens, visitors and tourism industry need it the most. In fact, the Department of Tourism says outdoor recreation was the top marketable driver of visits to Wisconsin in 2019.
