June 14 Rally at the Capitol

Tomorrow, Tuesday, June 14 there will be a 5:30 pm rally at the Capitol to protest Gov. Walker's extreme budget proposals. 

Proposals which gut our schools, attack our health care system, and cripple our communities. It is also expected that the collective bargaining measures - which strip union rights from public employees - will be jammed into the state budget in an attempt to circumvent democracy.

Republicans have called an “extraordinary session” to begin tomorrow, Tuesday June 14.  The rules are different in this session.  Debate will be limited, democracy will be circumvented and the balance will greatly tip in favor of ramming through an anti-worker, anti-family, anti-community agenda.

Come bear witness to this denial of democracy.  The Assembly will open at 11:00 am, tomorrow, June 14.  Please take part in democracy and bear witness to the extreme attack on the people of Wisconsin.

Join us tomorrow, Tuesday, June 14, as we continue to stand strong against a budget that guts public schools, attacks health care, raises taxes on workers and seniors, and jeopardizes public services like police and fire.  All while handing over $300 million a year in tax breaks to the rich.

Click here to sign the petition to stop the attacks on Wisconsin workers.  Tell Scott Walker to take his union-busting agenda out of the state budget.

For live updates of the rally be sure to visit the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO Face Book and Twitter pages.

 

Please share this post and the rally flyer with your friends, family, and neighbors!  Together, through collective action, we can continue to put pressure on our elected officials and restore fairness to Wisconsin.

Debate will be limited, democracy will not be circumvented and the balance will greatly tip in favor of ramming through a pro-worker, pro-family, anti-communist agenda. Come bear witness to democracy in action… Please take part in democracy and bear witness to the people of Wisconsin. Join us tomorrow, Tuesday, June 14, as we continue to stand strong for a budget that helps public schools, health care, lowers taxes on workers and seniors. All while still handing over $300 million a year in tax breaks to the poor. It's time for the poor to pay their fair share of taxes.
