How Many Wisconsin Workers Could Be Impacted by Biden's New Vaccine Mandate?

According to the Biz Times, "In Wisconsin, the new federal vaccination rule could apply to roughly 1.2 million workers, including about 382,000 in metro Milwaukee. That's based on 2018 figures, the most recent available data, from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which annually surveys private sector employers with at least 100 employees and federal contractors with at least 50 employees. That year 1,209.412 workers were included in that data in Wisconsin, including 381,584 in the Milwaukee metro." The Republican National Committee has announced its plans to file a lawsuit against the Biden administration over the mandates. Read more here. 

Girl Scout Cookies Take Flight in Virginia Drone Deliveries

It's raining cookies - it sounds like a dream, but for some in Virginia, it's a dream come true. Residents in a Virginia community are receiving their Girl Scout cookies via a Google affiliate drone. According to Claims Journal, "The town of Christianburg has been testing a ground for commercial delivery drones operated by Wing, a subsidiary of Google's corporate parent Alphabet." Those in Christianburg who have been surveyed are showing content with the drones. Lee Vinsel, an assistant professor of science, technology and society who conducted the survey said that suburban setup is easiest for drone delivery. It's unclear at this time if they're looking to expand this delivery system to other states (like Wisconsin), but one can hope that we'll soon be opening our front door in pajamas to grab our Girl Scout cookies.
