wisconsin goes back to 1836. at that time, wisconsin was part of michigan.hen michigan wanted to be their own state. we had to set up our own territory. we call ourselves wisconsin. it's an indian word. we have gathered over 15,000 lakes. we sent our paperwork to washington, d.c. they approved us to be a new territory. the president of the united states sends word back here that he had appointed henry dodge to be our first leader. mr. dodge was a gentleman from missouri who moved to wisconsin a few years earlier. he came to wisconsin to get rich because we find lead in our hills 60 miles from here. all kinds of miners come rushing to wisconsin to make a fortune. everybody wants to get rich. these guys dig holes into the side of the hill. if they didn't find any lead, they would live there. all of us who are not miners, said they live like badgers. that's how we get the nickname the badger state. really nothing to do with the animal itself. we're outside the office of the governor. we have a badger. he worked on the uss wisconsin. we have two battle ships nam

wisconsin's goes back to 1836. and at that wisconsin was part of michigan.ichigan wanted their own state. in wisconsin we have gathered over 15,000 lakes. they approved us to be a new territory. a man from missouri who moved from missouri a few years earlier. he came to wisconsin to get rich. well, everyone wants to get rich. so these guys quickly move to the other side of the hill. and they didn't find anything, then they lived there. they lived like badgers. that's how they get the nickname. the badgers really has nothing to do the animal itself. we had two battlesships worked in the state. as the sailors left port, they'd rub his nose for good luck. now we invite everybody who visits the capitol to rub his nose for good luck. he's working for me. we're now in the governor's conference room. the room itself is copied from it palace in venice, italy. as you look up on the ceiling, there's more gold in this room than any other capitol. we knew to keep it up as a modern office building we needed a new infrastructure. fiber optic, cables, and even a central ai

wisconsin. good evening mr. speaker. i know that your catholic as am i, and it seems to me that most of the republicans in the congress are not willing to stand with the poor and working class as evidenced in the ren debatsz as healthcare and the anticipated tax reform. so, i'd like to ask you how do you see yourself upholding the church's social teaching that has the idea that god is always on the side of the poor and dispossessed as should we be? >> spoken like a great dominican. >> sister, this may come as a surprise to you but i completely agree with you. where we may disagree on how to achieve that goal. we exercise judgment in practices or faith. for me -- for the poor that's key to the catholic faith. that means mobility, economic growth, equality of opportunity, that to me means working with this guy to make sure we can close the skills gap, to make sure every person who want a career and job can get the benefits. we passed that bill in july. that means to me taking this 20th century poverty program that we have,

trump more than wisconsin did. there is perhaps no county or town that delivered wisconsin, that delivered the white house more nan kenosha 200 days into the administration, we wanted to come here to a manufacturing facility in a manufacturing hub in a town that went for trump to find out if they are happy, what they still want to see get done and if the agenda is on track. where is the american economy headed wisconsin has a pretty good success story. we have a couple of ceos and you'll meet some millennials that are getting into manufacturing. they want to work and learn a trade. we always hear people are sitting on somebody's couch. these men and women are spending time learning machinery and manufacturing. they are proud of it we have a big show coming up in the badger state for the next couple of hours. >> we can see all the activity right behind you as we mentioned in the open, marc marcus limonus is here with us he will take us into the sophisticated highly business of pot. >> it was an interesting experienc

in wisconsin. they got a 44.6% tax rate. that's not the highest tax rate pair. i mean, aaron rodgers who deserves every salary is not the highest tax rate pair yer in th state. you know who it is? it's a single mom getting 24 grand in benefits with two kids who will lose 80 cents on the dollar if she goes and takes a job. we have to fix that. and that is why we have to fix it not just by kicking people off callously, but by making sure that we can customize these benefits to help a person get to where she is to where she wants and needs to be. that's why we have the benefits phase out in a certain way that fits her needs and goes and fixes it. the model i'm talking about is one you're familiar with. it's the catholic charities model. crystal ray parish, four miles that way, crystal ray par riishs catholic charities that does a fantastic job in spite of government doing wraparound benefits for the poor. if only government would actually help do that as well, i think we cowell gould go a longn fighti

we are on wisconsin avenue headed out. let me give you a look at what we are looking at. last year the lights here along wisconsin avenue and other arteries were retimed to keep traffic flowing but as you can there are other things that play factors. we are stopped even though we have a green light ahead of us. traffic always wins. we can tell you this i strategy. it started five years ago in 2012 the district has 1,650 intersections controlled by traffic signals across the city. this newest phase, final phase will address 384 of those intersections in northeast and southeast quadrants. district government says they reached their goal of recalibrating all of these signals. the 1,600 signals city wide. the cost for all of this, $3,500 per intersection. they say it is worth it. they say for every dollar they spend on reducing time in traffic it saves them $45. they also say it has reduced travel time for commuters 13% to 16% and it has reduced number of times you had to stop your car at a traffic light by 8% to 23%. they are also working on pedestrian signals, as well, thos

the wisconsin's voter suppression won michigan for example the number of people kicked off the voting rolls four hundred forty nine thousand was about forty times larger than trump's margin of victory around ten thousand votes and a new study from priorities usa found that wisconsin's voter suppression id law prevented at least two hundred thousand mostly democratic leaning voters in voting age twenty sixteen trumps margin of victory in wisconsin was a mere twenty two thousand votes is this are we not just simply seeing a repeat of what happened in florida in two thousand when jeb bush ordered to katherine harris to throw fifty four thousand african-americans off the voting rolls weeks before the election. well first of all the two hundred thousand number for wisconsin that's been debunked even even liberals are criticizing the methodology of that so i don't know if you want to spin an error to say it was only one hundred thousand i think was orders of magnitude you can you can do a lot of things with numbers but we. me. and so no one to know it sure i mean crystal backs losed is seve
