The State of Working Wisconsin is a comprehensive report,
issued every two years by COWS, that examines the changing economic
position of working people in the state. Using data on family and
household incomes, wages, hours worked, taxes, unemployment, wealth,
and poverty, we document current trends about economic well-being
and put them in perspective through comparisons with past Wisconsin
performance, the experience of neighboring states, and the nation
as a whole. The 5th edition was released on Labor Day, 2004.
