Governor Evers celebrates recognizes LGBTQ small business owners in Chippewa Falls
CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. (WLAX/WEUX) – Governor Tony Evers took time to celebrate Pride month in the Chippewa Valley. He visited with LGBTQ small business owners at Ope, It's Soap in downtown Chippewa Falls. Wisconsin Tourism saw another year of record-breaking economic impact. Evers says that it is, in large part, thanks to small business owners and LGBTQ individuals who contribute to the local and state economy. 'We believe in the rights of LGBTQ folks. They're our neighbors… friends. We have to celebrate that and be proud of the community and what they've accomplished.' Earlier this month, the Governor ordered the Progress Pride flag be raised over the Wisconsin State Capitol to celebrate the start of Pride month. 2025 marks the seventh year in a row that the Pride flag is being flown at the State Capitol in Madison.

Gov. Evers promotes Pride in CF visit
CHIPPEWA FALLS — Tony Liedl began making soap as a hobby in 2020. 'It started with a basic recipe, and I tweaked it,' he said. Liedl soon was selling at crafting events, and he eventually opened his own business. Ope! It's Soap moved into its current storefront at 116 N. Bridge St. last November. Liedl and his husband, Kevin Brylski, welcomed Gov. Tony Evers to their shop on Thursday, showing off their products while also talking about being being gay business owners. Brylski said they have signs that read 'Hate has no home here,' and the community has been overwhelmingly supportive. 'It's been really incredible,' Brylski said. 'Tony advertised on the door, writing, 'this is a safe space. This is a gay business.'' Liedl added that Chippewa Falls has been a safe community for them. Evers praised the business after finishing the tour. 'It's important for me to continue to see what is happening in our small stores across the state,' Evers said. 'They really care for each other here, and they do great work.' Evers has been visiting LGBTQ+ businesses across the state to celebrate Pride Month. 'They are a major part of our culture,' Evers said. 'I hate to hear negative things about Pride Month. I think it's important for Wisconsinites to stand up and show we are open for business. They are our neighbors, our friends, our spouses.' Liedl and Brylski got married in 2020 in the Dominican Republic. Brylski pointed out to Evers that gay marriage has only been legal nationwide since 2015, and they both admitted they are concerned about any challenges that could outlaw their union. 'It's hard not to think about it,' Liedl told Evers. 'It's worrying. What would happen if I got sick and died, and would our marriage no longer be valid?' Evers assured the couple he would block any attempts to ban gay marriages. Brylski thanked Evers for coming to Chippewa Falls and seeing their shop. 'I'm very thankful for Gov. Evers and politicians like him,' Brylski said. Evers ordered the Rainbow Pride Flag to fly over the East Wing of the State Capitol for the first time in state history in 2019. Since then, the Rainbow Pride Flag has flown over the Capitol each year for the month of June until 2022, when Gov. Evers raised the Progress Pride Flag over the State Capitol for the first time, a press release from his office reads. An iteration of the widely recognized Rainbow Pride Flag, the Progress Pride Flag was created to symbolize the inclusion of marginalized communities within the LGBTQ community. The Progress Pride Flag includes additional stripes forming a chevron pattern that represent LGBTQ individuals of color and the transgender community, as well as those who are living with and who have been lost to HIV/AIDS. When asked if he's heard any feedback from President Donald Trump's administration about the decision to fly the flag, Evers said he's been left alone on this issue so far.

Child care costs as much as college. Here is what you need to know about fixes.
You might have heard that child care costs as much as college. Parents face big bills, long wait lists and a shortage of quality providers. At the same time, many child care providers say without assistance, they will be forced to close their doors. One of the biggest hurdles is finding qualified workers in an industry with low wages. For a first-hand perspective, the Ideas Lab's Kristin Brey talked with four early childhood education ambassadors from Milwaukee Succeeds, an organization connected with the Greater Milwaukee Foundation that focuses on early childhood education and high school success. The interviews (available in the video play list above and links below) include conversations with: Jackie Burrell, a former child care provider, educator and parent. She also serves on the Board of Commissioners for Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee; is the Westlawn Resident Council President; and is Foster Care to Adopt lead. See her interview. LaDonna Foster, a former child care educator and parent. She is also the lead coordinator and board member at Westlawn Resident Council. See her interview. Taffie Foster-Toney, lead case manager for Wisconsin Community Service and Driver's License Recovery and Employability program. See her interview. Vanessa Giraldez, current early childhood education parent and lead service navigator at the National Alliance on Mental Illness and program coordinator for the Lighthouse Project. See her interview. The future of proposed funding to support Wisconsin's struggling child care industry is in doubt after state budget negotiations between Gov. Tony Evers and legislative leaders collapsed June 4. Evers, a Democrat, proposed spending $480 million on Child Care Counts, a program that directs federal pandemic relief funding to child care providers across Wisconsin. Providers use the money to increase staff wages, to offset the cost of physical operating expenses like rent and utilities, to increase the quality of their programming and to prevent large tuition hikes. With the pandemic funding expected to run out this summer, Evers is asking for $480 million over the next two years to continue the program. It's unclear how much, if any, Republicans, who control the legislature, will support in their budget bill. The state's new two-year budget begins July 1. If the governor and legislature don't agree on a budget, spending will continue at current levels. How does Wisconsin compare to other states in responding to child care struggles? Here are solutions from two states highlighted by Milwaukee Succeeds: New Mexico: Voters passed a constitutional amendment dedicating 1.25% of state land trust revenue to early childhood education. In addition, the state now offers child care assistance to families earning up to 400% of the federal poverty level and has waived all family copayments. New Mexico is leading on both sustainable funding and affordability, ensuring families don't face out-of-reach child care costs while creating long-term stability for providers. Vermont: Lawmakers passed legislation that funds scholarships and loan repayment for early childhood education workers, expands family subsidies, upgrades the IT system, and sets equity-driven goals: no family should pay more than 10% of income, and providers should be fairly paid. Vermont is treating child care as public infrastructure, investing in both access and workforce quality while building a system that can meet long-term needs. The Wisconsin Policy Forum's recent budget brief for Wisconsin includes a table outlining policy options from other states.
