Hopefully they dont throw in exemptions for republican leaning unions like they were talking about doing.

I'm surprised it took this long. No difference between the parties though. Mary Burke/Hillary Clinton would do the same thing!

I'm generally positive about RTW, but these stupid exemptions kind of bug me. Why not be consistent?

You don't want to piss off your allies and donors. Even though both the Fire and Police Unions supported the protesters in 2011, even after having their collective bargaining rights preserve.

Both sides expect Feingold to run, Dems think he'll announce in late spring or early summer.

Good to know that the continual decline in the middle class makes you excited.

I'm more excited that one of the biggest proponents of civil liberties will return and grow that group. One alone, as Lizzy has demonstrated, cannot singlehandedly shift the economy, especially since Republicans will probably still stay in charge.

Police and firefighters are manly man work. Teaching is woman's work.

Fitzgerald says he has the votes to pass it in the Senate. Republicans control the chamber 18-14 and Fitzgerald has said 17 from his caucus will vote for it.

Interested to see what Republican votes Nay.

Passing this will be great, plus it was have an unintended side effect. Helping Barrett beat the racist and insane Alderman Joe Davis and the racist and insane Alderman "Bathroom" Bob Donovan in April 2016. Can't believe I'm rotting for Barrett but he's working with the business leaders an making Milwaukee boom. Plus we also have the streetcar passed and both of the other yahoos (Davis and "Bathroom" Bob oppose it).
