Today on Lake Effect, we learn about The Bridge Project, Milwaukee’s first unconditional cash program for eligible pregnant people. Then, our new series Politics through the Prism of the Environment explores why environmental issues are so important to some voters. We look at what life is like for two Muslim artists in Milwaukee in a series called Group Chat. Plus, we explore the roots of Wisconsin’s dairy industry and what it means to be a modern day dairy farmer.
