Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker Signs Bill

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has signed a controversial bill taking away public worker collective bargaining rights.

The Wisconsin state Assembly on Thursday approved sweeping restrictions on public sector unions in a stinging rebuke of the labor movement that critics fear will encourage other states to follow.

After a short debate, the Republican-dominated Assembly voted 53-42 to limit government union bargaining rights to wages only and impose a series of other restrictions. Four Republicans joined Democrats in voting against.

The proposed law sparked fierce opposition from Democrats and labor unions across the nation and drew the largest demonstrations in Wisconsin since the Vietnam War.

I wish he had fired all of them! But this is a start. If they don't like it they can find other careers...just like the rest of us!

I'd agree with you up to that point, the rest, I'm not so sure. Time will tell.

"We must close union offices, confiscate their money, and put their leaders in prison. We must reduce workers' salaries and take away their right to strike."

photo, a little over reaction...not all teachers agreed with the unions, I know several that didn't. Just watch "waiting for superman." It exposes the NEA and bad teachers!
