Some law enforcement agencies in western Wisconsin have acknowledged using Eau Claire as a dumping ground—picking up homeless or mentally ill people who have not committed a crime, taxiing them to Eau Claire, and dumping them on the streets against their will. This isn’t a surprise given the example put on by some politicians in Texas and Florida whose actions amount to human trafficking, but law enforcement shouldn’t sink to their level. And in this week’s Climate Check: a final round of grants for rural clean energy projects before President Biden leaves office—with no guarantee the Trump administration won’t leave rural America high and dry.
