Announcer:

The following program is a PBS Wisconsin original production.

Robin Vos:

What we have here are people of goodwill saying here is something that Republicans could move on to be able to update the statute.

Frederica Freyberg:

Assembly Republicans circulate a bill allowing abortions in cases of rape or incest, but the Senate says no go. A federal agency recommends strict standards for toxic forever chemicals, and the Legislature hosts the annual State of the Tribe’s Address. I’m Frederica Freyberg, tonight on “Here & Now,” Senator Tammy Baldwin addresses clean water and abortion. Zac Schultz reports on the intensifying Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Tribal leaders explain barriers to healthcare, and a look at a law criminalizing overdose deaths. It’s “Here & Now” for March 17.
