Today on Lake Effect, we look at a Wisconsin Supreme Court decision that will impact who is allowed to possess a gun. Then during Period Poverty Awareness week, we learn what the Milwaukee Diaper Mission is doing to address the issue. We get tips on how to keep pests out of our yards, while encouraging pollinators. Plus, share the story of Gertie the duck: what she brought to the city and why she has her own statue on the Wisconsin Avenue bridge.
Guests:
- Tony Cotton, criminal defense attorney
- Meagan Johnson, co-founder and executive director of the Milwaukee Diaper Mission
- Corey Lee, MATC graduate; Michael Rosen, retired professor and founder of the FAST Fund
- Melinda Myers, gardening expert
- Amanda Seligman, professor of history and urban studies at UW-Milwaukee
