Hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites have been showing their disgust with Governor Walker's agenda to strip Wisconsin Workers' of their rights in the workplace.
Governor Walker introduced his quest in the form of a "Budget repair Bill" and demanded that lawmakers approve his radical bill and have it on his desk in "five" workdays for his signature.
Governor Walker was blatantly attempting to bypass a fair and open legislative process and to deny "Democracy" in Wisconsin.
Fourteen state senator's did the only act they could do and that was to depart the "People's House" in order to protect the process of democracy in Wisconsin and to provide for a time to have the "people's" voice heard. However, it became very clear, very fast that Governor Walker was going to ignore the voices of Wisconsin Workers' and that the only voice he would listen to was that of David Koch, a billionaire financier of a republican cause to destroy organized workers across America. Governor Walker's real intent with his budget repair bill was revealed when he thought he was speaking to the real David Koch and in fact he was speaking to an imposter, posing as David Koch.
The ONLY recall's taking place should be that of EVERY Republican legislator who has voted for or has supported Governor Walker's budget repair bill.
However, to avoid an outright attack on Republican legislator's who support stripping Wisconsin Workers' of their "rights" in the workplace, republicans are attempting to mount a recall effort on the democratic state senators who have left the legislative process in order to halt this attack on Wisconsin families.
Similar recall's are also being initiated in many districts currently held by republicans. However, WE ALL need to protect the 14 democratic state senators. Follow the below link to see how a meeting to recall Democratic Senator Dave Hansen of Green Bay was protested by an outpouring of citizens. We do urge civility and caution in these protests. Governor Walker has already been caught (in phone recording) "thinking" of the idea to plant trouble makers in protest events.
