Republican legislators-
You claim that the state is broke. Desperate times. Gotta make some radical moves to get this thing fixed. You then make public employees the scapegoat. "Asking" for concessions, destroying collective bargaining for dedicated public servants, many who have given years of their lives in service to this state. Taxpayers with families to support. Making their difficult jobs even harder. Throwing any concept of employee morale out the door, all in the name of "fixing the budget".
You treat the public school teachers the same way, pulling the rug out from under them, and sending far less money to the districts. Again, all in the name of "fixing the budget". Despite those wonderful "tools" given to them in the repair bill, many distircts still have gaping funding holes. So, why in God's name would you then turn around, Glenn, and propose to give tax credits to private schools? $1500 per year per first grader, $2500 per year per ninth grader? and even more to come!! The state needs every dollar it can get. You guys say so yourselves every day. Yet when it is time to walk the walk, after talking the talk over and over and over again, you let your true colors show.
Glenn Grothman and other Walker-following "legislators", your arrogance and utter disdain for the citizens of this state is showing.
As all those thousands of protesters have said, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY!!, is it?
