City Alder Attacked via Graffiti, Meningitis Vax Debate and TikTok Ban

It’s your Friday news roundup. City Cast Madison producers Dylan Brogan and Molly Stentz bring you nuggets of news from our fair city.

Homophobic graffiti slandering city alder Mike Verveer surfaced near his home in Madison over the weekend.

And anti-vaxxers have a new target: the meningitis vaccine. Gov. Tony Evers made it mandatory for seventh graders, but now some voters and lawmakers are pushing back. 

Plus, Senator Tammy Baldwin signs onto a bill that could ban TikTok. 

And hey, we have a race for Madison Mayor! And really, shouldn't we have a better name for Bus Rapid Transit?
