We have fully made the switch from print to digital, and with that, have switched email providers. We now provide our in-depth investigative journalism, research, videos, policy briefs and opinion pieces solely via our weekly Top Picks email.


Top Picks is sent out every Friday, 52 weeks a year. 


To ensure you continue to receive our emails, add [email protected] to your email contacts. This will help your email provider deliver our emails safely to your inbox.


If, after taking that step, you still find you are not receiving emails from Badger, let us know through one of the following ways:



Gmail users:


If the email does not appear in your Primary inbox, please check your Promotions inbox or your Spam folder. If the email has been directed to Spam, please select the message and mark Not Spam to move the email and all future communications to your Primary inbox.


Yahoo! users:


If the email does not appear in your inbox, please check your Spam folder. If the email has been directed to Spam, please select the message and mark Not Spam to move the email and all future communications to your inbox.


All other users:


If the email does not appear in your inbox, please check your Spam/Junk/Other folder. If the email has been directed to one of those places, please select the message and mark it "safe" as your email provider allows (i.e. Safe, Not Spam, Not Junk, etc.).

Email us for help

If you HAVE received the last few weeks of Top Picks without issue, please disregard this message.


If you HAVE NOT received Top Picks, let us know.


The transition to digital allows us to be more relevant and in-the-moment. Our goal is to give you the most objective, fact-based investigative journalism and policy research informed by conservative principles in the Badger State – but we can’t do that unless we show up in your email inbox.

Our work in advancing free markets, opportunity and prosperity in the Badger State is only made possible by generous donations. We never have, and never will, accept government funding. Donate online or email Angela Smith, EVP. The Badger Institute is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization.
