Here & Now

Here & Now opening for March 27, 2026

Announcer:
The following program is a PBS Wisconsin original production.

Frederica Freyberg:
A postponed Supreme Court debate doesn’t forfeit voters only chance to see the candidates square off and although school is still in session, the state Legislature is not, leaving residents hanging on property tax relief.
I’m Frederica Freyberg. Tonight on “Here & Now,” the state Supreme Court election approaches. “Inside Wisconsin Politics” sets the table for you to get to know the candidates. And Zac Schultz reports on how each candidate would respond to requests to recuse themselves on cases. As property taxes increase while public schools vie for more funding, communities are informing the public how much is diverted to private schools. And with millions of dollars now released by the state to address PFAS, we check back with the town of Stella to see how it could be put to use. It’s “Here & Now” for March 27.
