Today on Spanning the State Kristin Brey and Brian Noonan discuss Sun Prairie's initiative for police to send mental health specialists on emergency calls instead of officers through their Community alternative Response Emergency Services program. They ponder which situations require what response and how this initiative is seeing good results it can still be harmful. Later they speak to Mark Sommerhauser Communications Director & Policy Researcher for the Wisconsin Policy Forum about a new report they released highlighting Wisconsin’s Sports Betting laws on tribal lands ahead of the Super Bowl this weekend. Then Bird Flu is on the rise and businesses like the Waffle House are reacting.
