Your Wisconsin tax dollars at work (pride flag edition)

 

Headline:  Wisconsin Public Radio, 9/11/2025

Anya Van Wagtendonk reports on Jerry O'Connor's fluency in Newspeak:

One approved bill would prohibit most flags from being flown from state buildings, with the exception of U.S. and Wisconsin state flags, and relevant state agency flags. The bill would also exempt flags that honor veterans, tribal nations, flags of other states or nations for ceremonial purposes, safety flags, or flags for schools or universities.

The bill’s lead author, Rep. Jerry O’Connor, R-Fond du Lac, said the idea is to promote unity, and argued that other symbols on state buildings sow division.
