More on WiscoIMG_7488.jpgnsin

In Wisconsin, workers, students, faith, immigrant rights groups, LGBT groups, womens groups, all sectors of labor, environmental groups, and more continue to occupy the state capitol and more in numbers that are climbing to over 80,000 people.

In states across the country, workers are fighting back against corporate-backed lawmakers who are trying to use state budget problems as an excuse to gut workers’ rights and benefits, when in fact it was Wall Street’s IMG_7503.jpggambles and broken promises that have hurt taxpayers and the middle class—not workers. CEOs are trying to shift the blame for high unemployment and rising poverty levels away from themselves and onto workers and our unions.


Join us Friday in Portland as we stand in solidarity with Wisconsin!
