“Brothers and sisters, this is our way of showing the world that unity and solidarity are alive and well. And in Wisconsin, those are not just words and chants, but those are the ways that we function and we move forward.”
-- Wisconsin State AFL-CIO President Phil Neuenfeldt
Wisconsinites continue to press for a return to normalcy in Wisconsin following the efforts of extreme right-wing Republicans in that state to turn the clock back on worker rights. In a move to force far-right Wisconsin governor Scott Walker from office, voters in the state have succeeded in putting a recall question on the ballot later this year.
To drum up support for the recall effort the AFL-CIO and others sponsored rallies across the state ending in a huge rally in Madison. The fuller story is told at the link shown below.
To the workers of Wisonsin, I say: Solidarity Forever!
