Frederica Freyberg:
Plagued by lockdowns, a local official renews calls to shutter the century-old Green Bay Correctional Institution, and privacy advocates want to protect consumers from companies buying and selling private data from cell phones.
I’m Frederica Freyberg. Tonight on “Here & Now,” the Allouez village president on why it’s time to close the Green Bay prison in his community. Republican Representative Shannon Zimmerman on the realities of our lack of data privacy coming from our cell phones. A literacy specialist shares the latest on overhauling the state’s early reading curriculum. And growing food insecurity across the state, including on college campuses. It’s “Here & Now” for March 8.
