HIGHLIGHT: WISCONSIN
Maple Bluff: A painting showing three children blowing bubbles and playing together that former Gov. Scott Walker had removed from the governor’s residence is back up. Democratic Gov. Tony Evers on Friday announced the return of the painting, which had been hanging in the Milwaukee central library since Walker took it down in 2011. The painting by David Lenz called “Wishes in the Wind” was first displayed in the mansion in 2010. Walker replaced it with a century-old painting of Old Abe, a Civil War-era bald eagle from Wisconsin. He said then that it was done to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War.
