Good morning, Racine. Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 6th of June.

COMMUNITY NEWS

  • On Tuesday afternoon, neighbors gathered in Uptown to pot plants and clean the Washington Avenue sidewalk as part of a community clean-up effort—actions that boosted the local appearance.  The Journal Times

EDUCATION NEWS

  • The Raymond School District reported on improved financial oversight during a June 2 budget workshop following a loan payment made without prior board approval. Superintendent Mike Leach and incoming business manager Jeff Genovese said the district will update its reporting system (with monthly reconciliations and full use of Skyward) to reduce short-term borrowing costs.  Racine County Eye
  • Raymond School will soon install 12 new window AC units—each costing about $400 and funded by parent and PTO donations—to cool classrooms during hot weather. Superintendent Michael Leach said the school set energy guidelines for the units and plans a similar purchase next year.  Racine County Eye

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • Three constitutional law professors at Marquette University Law School said a clause in the federal budget bill could let government officials ignore court orders if no bond is posted—raising doubts over checks on government power. The measure is now under Senate negotiation and may weaken judicial oversight for agencies in Wisconsin.  Racine County Eye

HEALTH NEWS

  • Crews are still battling wildfires in Canada while tens of thousands have evacuated three provinces and smoke drifts into major U.S. cities—Dr. Monica Vasudev from Aurora Health Care advises Wisconsinites to take steps to guard their health.  CBS58
  • Multiple Wisconsin health care systems—such as SSM Health, Aurora Health, Ascension and UW Health—quietly removed diversity, equity and inclusion language from their websites after federal funding for DEI programs was banned, with UW Health replacing its DEI page with a social impact and belonging page explained in an op-ed. Critics said the quiet changes may weaken efforts to address the state's long-standing health disparities.  Racine County Eye
