It's a topic that often comes with heated debate: should people in Wisconsin have to prove they are working or are looking for a job in order to receive welfare benefits?

The issue is heating up again in Madison. Wisconsin lawmakers will vote Tuesday on whether to add an advisory referendum to the April election ballot. It would ask whether able-bodied, childless adults should be required to look for work in order to receive state welfare benefits.

It's a move led by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu - both Republicans.

“I don't agree with it,” said Angle Whitelow. “I am on welfare, I don’t have a job, and it’s hard to find a job. It would make life harder for so many people. It feels like a hit on the poor and disadvantaged. Some jobs prefer higher education, I may not have that. Others prefer a clean background; some people may not have that.”

If passed, the referendum would have no effect. But political experts say it's an issue that conservatives are passionate about.

Packers' surge raises playoff contention hopes

Despite the short turnaround and several starters out with injuries, the Green Bay Packers feasted on Thanksgiving with a 29-22 upset over the Detroit Lions. Ashley Washburn tells us more.

Carole J. Meekins started at TMJ4 in 1991 and for the past 32 years, she has not only been a tremendous asset to this station, she has also touched the lives of many of our viewers, as well as those who have worked with her over the years.

Jim Prather is a former News Director for TMJ4.

"She was one of my first hires. She came from Cleveland, she really was the kind of person as well as talent we needed at TMJ4 at the time. She brought a connection to the audience," said Prather.

Mike Gousha worked as an anchor and reporter at TMJ4 from 1977-2015.

"We were looking for a new co-anchor at the station and the News Director at the time called me into his office and he said, hey I want you to look at a tape of one of our candidates for this co-anchor position and it was Carole. And I remember seeing her tape and I was just blown away and I said to the news director, if we could get her to come to Milwaukee, it would be a home run and fortunately for us, she decided to come to Milwaukee, and it was definitely a home run," said Gousha.

Carole was adamant that she be hired by the station based on her talent and nothing else.

Carole Meekins to retire from TMJ4 after 30 years

November 21 is a day filled with emotions for Jan Kwiatkowski as it marks another year since the Waukesha Christmas parade tragedy.

Six people were killed in 2021 when Darrell Brooks drove an SUV through the parade route.

Four of the victims were part of the Milwaukee Dancing Grannies family. Kwiatkowski is the president and a co-leader of the group.

"It feels very far away, and at the same time like it just happened," Kwiatkowski stated. "It's just hitting us differently, and I can't explain that too much."

Two years Kwiatkowski said the group continues to honor them.

The Milwaukee Police Department (MPD) said they were going to void citations that they gave out early Friday morning at the Holt Avenue Park and Ride.

“Citations were never a part of the plan; they were never discussed,” Milwaukee County Supervisor Caroline Gómez-Tom explained.

Supervisor Gómez-Tom oversees District 14. She tells TMJ4 she was heartbroken when she first heard about MPD giving the tickets out.

“They were able to void those tickets but unfortunately some of the damage is already done. Because we have built trust with folks here.”

Trust that Eva Welch, the director of Street Angels, says could have been impacted.

“Folks are definitely shook up because they thought that they were working on getting housing plans with the county. I know the county has been there often working with folks,” Welch explained.

Over the next several days, millions of Americans will be taking advantage of online deals for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

"Companies and retailers are putting out their heads up emails, those Black Friday deals or even extending those deals earlier on," cybersecurity expert Bryan Sevener said.

While you're on the move to find a good deal this holiday season, so are cybercriminals.

"Right now, it's predominantly targeted at getting access to your personally identifiable information and any online accounts you may have access to, getting your credit card information," Sevener explained.

Sevener is the president of ValorTechnologies, a Milwaukee-based cybersecurity company.

His team predicts even more consumers will be targeted this year.

How to protect yourself online shopping for Black Friday, Cyber Monday

Dollar General has agreed to pay more than $800,000 for alleged violations of overcharging customers, according to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection (DATCP).

For many Milwaukeeans, Dollar General is a matter of convenience.

"I go to Dollar General almost every day since it's right next door to the building. It's real convenient," frequent Dollar General shopper, Felicia Shoates, said.

It's a cheaper option, typically in low-income areas across our state. But recently, several customers said they noticed changes at some Dollar Generals.

"I'm kind of frugal in a way, I make my dollar holler, and their prices are always different," customer Vanessa Dodd said.

This Sunday the Waukesha Christmas parade will step off with the theme "A Holiday Gem."

It will start with a silent remembrance of those lives lost in the parade tragedy two years ago. That will light the way into a spectacle of floats and performances.

The main sponsor Ascension Wisconsin, offered a sneak peek at their float, covered in bright colors and gem stones.

"Just hope it brings smiles to the faces of people of Waukesha," ER nurse Angelina Singer said.

Singer led Ascension's "Candy Cane Crew" in designing and creating the vibrant float alongside Wandel Contractors.
