This massive change in state law could be jammed through within the next day. Please take action now and contact your legislator. Ask them to stop this radical move to take away the rights of Wisconsin workers.
To be connected with your legislator call 877-753-5578. Politely ask them to stop this radical move to take away the rights of Wisconsin workers.
When You Call Your Legislator, Here Are Some Points to Raise
• The Governor is rushing through radical changes that would take away rights from workers, without making any effort to talk to those workers, much less negotiate a fair agreement with those workers.
• Before drastically curtailing the negotiating rights of nursing aids, teachers, correctional offices and others, both sides should meet and negotiate in good faith. It is time to seek solutions that are fair to both taxpayers and to those who provide vital public services.
• Public employees understand the need to do more with less. Most have gone without pay raises while taking unpaid furlough days. Staffing cuts by state and local governments across Wisconsin -- and more than 4,000 unfilled state positions -- mean employee workloads have gotten heavier.
• State employees already agreed to more than $100 million in concessions in an overdue contract settlement that the governor scuttled before even taking office.
• This "budget" proposal is crammed with major policy changes. It would take away the rights of thousands of citizens without giving any time for public input.
• Please oppose Governor Walker’s radical proposal that will undermine public employee rights.
• We are willing to make sacrifices, but please don't take away our rights.
If at all possible, PLEASE COME TO THE STATE CAPITOL and join the protest!
