As Ohio State Senators debate Senate Bill 5, which would strip public employees of collective bargaining rights in their unions, Wisconsin's protests have been as loud and vibrant as ours need to be. Workers packed the Capitol building last week (read about it here), and we're going to have to keep it up.
Tuesday the 22nd is expected to be the last day for debate. Protesters will be gathering at the Statehouse at 1pm tomorrow for the hearing at 3:30. Be there! The resistance to this bill probably will make Kasich think twice about what cuts he proposes in his budget next month. Let's give him plenty to think about.
