if you haven't received this by email, i request your attention for a single minute to the moveon.org appeal to show support for the wisconsin workers who are having all of their rights stripped away. i belong to the same union they do and am pretty worried about the unions ability to do anything. the new governor of wisconsin has basically told the union to screw off. i wonder if he was voted in because of election promises to end the union and give slave labor conditions to the people that work for him? welcome to north africa, i guess. the people in libya right now have more of a voice than the people of wisconsin.
below is the text from the moveon.org website and the link to sign the petition.
thanks!
The Wisconsin 14 — the brave Democratic state senators who left the state to stop the Republican attacks on workers—are under increasing pressure to return to Wisconsin. And as soon as just one does, Republicans will be able to jam through their terrible bill.
Unfortunately, there have been credible reports over the last 24 hours that this is imminent.
These senators have been away from their homes and families for almost two weeks now, at great personal cost. It can't be easy. That's why we need to show them that they have the support of millions of progressives nationwide -- and that we're counting on them to stand strong.
A compiled statement of support with your individual comment will be presented to the Wisconsin 14.
