Our April 12th week in review episode covers 5 stories that affect local communities. Our format has us dive a little deeper into the 5th story each week. In the first 4 stories we cover Teacher Licensing, Veterans seeking elective office, BlackRock – the worlds largest asset manager and a state government shifting school cost to local governments. The big story this week covers invasive species.

Wimmer's Wilderness is an informed look at Politics, Community, Government, Environment and Education from a local perspective.

Our regions, states and countries are simply a collection of local communities working together. If we are able to make a positive change in our local communities then that will lead to better outcomes at the regional, state and national level.
