Summary

Steve Scaffidi opens the show by asking listeners whether rising gas prices changed their Memorial Day travel plans before diving into new polling on Wisconsin’s failed bipartisan tax relief and education funding package with Marquette Law School Poll director Charles Franklin. Later, Steve discusses the importance of summer jobs for teenagers, checks in on the broader economy with Annex Wealth Management CEO Dave Spano, and welcomes City Forward Collective’s Colleston Morgan to examine what the failed bipartisan deal means for education funding and Milwaukee Public Schools moving forward.
