Broadband roundtable explores how Evers budget proposal will aid rural areas Broadband is a big focus of the Evers administration s budget proposal for the 2021-23 biennium, quadrupling the current investment in broadband infrastructure at $200,000. Even with all that money, experts in the field still have to figure out the best ways to invest it.

Current Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations define dairy products as being from dairy animals. Although existing federal regulations are clear, the FDA has not enforced these labeling regulations and the mislabeling of plant-based imitation dairy products as ‘milk’, ‘yogurt’ and ‘cheese’ has increased rapidly.
