That wern't no touchdown, scab!

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker has now sided with labor against management in one specific context. After a bizarre ending to last night's Packers-Seahawks game and Seattle benefitting from a controversial call, Gov. Walker now wants the locked out union referees back.

Walker wins one

In a 4-3 decision, the Supreme Court of Wisconsin has given the Governor a win in his war on public sector unions. The decision overturns the trial court invalidation of the legislation. Previous post here.

Rejected!

A state circuit court in Wisconsin has voided the controversial law repealing collective bargaining for public employees -  because the legislature allegedly violated the state's open meetings law. This issue will ultimately make it to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. The Journal-Sentinel has a good article giving context to the ruling.

Walker's approval dives over assault on public employee unions

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker now has a 57% disapproval rate, according to a new Rasmussen poll. 48% strongly disapprove. Yikes! Among families with children in public school 67% disapprove, 54% strongly so.
