As a concerned citizen outraged by Big Labor’s forced-dues power and stranglehold over state and
local budgets, I would like to thank you for standing up to the union bosses and bringing the Right
to Work for most Wisconsin government workers.
Your reform bill passed, but as you know, the fight is not over. That’s why I urge you to:
1) PROTECT the new Wisconsin public-sector Right to Work law and stand strong as Big
Labor goes all-out to restore its forced-dues privileges over Wisconsin’s state and local government workers.
2) ENFORCE the bans on forced-dues and automatic paycheck deduction for most public employees.
3) PROSECUTE lawbreakers and vandals who flouted the law and common decency to protect the union bosses’ power.
Peaceful events like citizen rallies are hallmarks of our republic, but violent
threats against pro-worker freedom politicians, damage to public property, doctors
faking sick notes for absentee teachers -- these are unacceptable!
4) DEFEND the reforms of government-sector monopoly bargaining from spurious legal assaults by union lawyers.
No matter what the union czars claim, freedom of association does not entitle
them to steamroll over taxpayers with outrageous budget demands.
In November, the American people sent a clear message to elected officials. Your
government-sector monopoly bargaining reforms suggest that you got the message. Please, do not back down.
