Creative Budget Scrabble

We just finished putting together a comprehensive list of damaging items in Gov. Walker’s 2013-2015 Budget. Somehow, we managed to squeeze all the drastic cuts, shameful corporate givebacks and baffling non-fiscal policy items on only eight pages.

Click here to download our 2013-2015 Budget Overview and Its Impact on Wisconsin’s Working Families.

Both the state Assembly and state Senate passed the budget last week. Gov. Walker has stated he will sign the budget this Sunday, June 30, at the establishment of a generous campaign donor.

Due to one of the most powerful veto pens in the country, Gov. Walker has complete power over the final wording of the budget. Walker has the ability to line-item veto individual letters, words, full sentences or complete chunks of the budget. Wisconsin is one of the only states in the nation in which the Governor has so much control over the final budget. With this kind of leverage, Gov. Walker can play creative scrabble and doctor the budget to his liking. However, his veto pen can also be used for good. There is still time to raise your voice and urge Gov. Walker to make a bad budget somewhat better.

Contact Gov. Walker’s office at (608) 266-1212 or govgeneral@wisconsin.gov and urge him to use his veto power to make the budget better. Here is a list of some of the items we think should come out of the budget: the refusal to expand Medicaid, the creation of a bail bondsmen system, changes to unemployment insurance, and the expansion of school vouchers. Check out our 2013-2015 Budget Overview and contact Gov. Walker with the changes you’d like to see.

Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and all. However think about if you added some great graphics or videos to give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with images and clips, this site could certainly be one of the most beneficial in its field. Excellent blog!

I'm really loving the theme/design of your site. Do you ever run into any internet browser compatibility issues? A small number of my blog readers have complained about my website not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Safari. Do you have any tips to help fix this problem?

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement? My website has a lot of exclusive content I've either written myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any techniques to help protect against content from being ripped off? I'd really appreciate it.

Currently it appears like Wordpress is the preferred blogging platform available right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

Hey, I think your website might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, terrific blog!
