Wisconsin Republicans Need to Move Forward

Submitted by admin on Thu, 12/16/2021 - 8:03am

Dear Editor,
My wife recently made me happy when she told me that we could get a pickup truck when our older car bites the dust. I was excited at the thought of getting an electric pickup truck, but worried about the lack of charging stations.
The bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act was since signed into law and charging stations for electric cars are planned in that bill. My future looks brighter!

Mental health has become a critical part of our medical knowledge in recent years. As increases in research are completed, we learn more of how mental health affects many domains of our physical health and overall wellness. However, there is still one area that many people neglect or are dismissive of, and that is infant and early childhood mental health.
