ROAD TRIP RECOMMENDATION – You’d expect a governor to be a little coy about talking up one Wisconsin town over all the others, right? But Gov. Tony Evers didn’t miss a beat when we asked him to name an underrated road trip destination—and he went about as “up north” as it gets! We talked about some of his other favorite things after we finished discussing the top issues he’ll be tackling in the new year. Look for more excerpts from our interview this week and a link to watch the full interview on our YouTube channel.

Support Our Cause

Thank you for taking the time to read our work. Before you go, we hope you'll consider supporting our values-driven journalism, which has always strived to make clear what's really at stake for Wisconsinites and our future.

Since day one, our goal here at UpNorthNews has always been to empower people across the state with fact-based news and information. We believe that when people are armed with knowledge about what's happening in their local, state, and federal governments—including who is working on their behalf and who is actively trying to block efforts aimed at improving the daily lives of Wisconsin families—they will be inspired to become civically engaged.
