In her written statement, the staffer alleged Frye-Mueller came to her on Jan. 24 with her husband for discussion on a proposed bill about license plates. The staffer said after the conversation about the bill, Frye-Mueller asked about her child and the conversation turned to vaccines. The staffer alleges that Frye-Mueller said the staffer's baby could "get Down syndrome or autism" or even die, because of childhood vaccinations.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, vaccinations do not cause autism.
And when the staffer informed the senator she was using formula instead of breastfeeding when the senator asked, Frye-Mueller then allegedly told the staffer how "(the staffer's) husband could 'suck on (the staffer's) breasts' to get milk to come in," according to the complaint.
"She proceeded to provide hand gestures to her chest area and motion to her husband to see if he agreed," the complaint stated. "He smiled and nodded."
Artist & Fare represents one of the more creative reuses of the 360-plus stores that were left vacant by Shopko's March 2019 bankruptcy. The store shutdowns that June created voids that many communities still are struggling to fill. In some cases small, Midwest communities lost the only pharmacy or general merchandise store for miles. Longtime workers found new jobs and fought for years for promised severance payments. Municipalities added another parking lot and big-box to an inventory of vacant spaces following an onslaught of retail bankruptcies.
12/21/2021 update, " Shopko storefront looks less abandoned in bright winter sunlight", starts here.
The two Madison stores are listed among the casualties in this article. With an eye toward shutting down under-performing stores, the company announced that it will close 105 stores, including the company's original store at 216 S. Military Ave. in Green Bay, according to a website set up to provide information on the reorganization.
"I started crying and said, 'Not my store,'" Green Bay resident Vicki Villers said as she shopped for greeting cards in the Military Avenue store. "My husband (Harvey Villers Jr.) and I depend on this store. We love this store. I hate to see it close."
The announcement means that by this spring, Shopko will no longer have a presence in Dane County. In January, Shopko announced the closing of 38 stores, including its two stores in Madison on Mineral Point Road at West Towne Mall and Zeier Road on Madison’s East Side.
That announcement came after the Ashwaubenon-based retailer said in late 2018 that it would close 39 stores.
In totality, the closings will leave Shopko with just 109 stores compared to the 360 the company now lists on its website.
“Shopko has been a Wisconsin institution for more than 50 years and these closures will undoubtedly change the fabric of multiple Wisconsin communities,” said DWD Secretary-designee Caleb Frostman. “These layoffs will impact hundreds of hard-working Wisconsinites across our state in several Wisconsin communities. With ever-changing consumer habits, retail workers are becoming more and more insecure in their employment.”
