Mass Protests Over WI Governor's Controversial Budget Repair Bill
#4
Mike Wrote:Sweet. Anything big planned for the days ahead?

Let's just say I have never received as many Facebook event invitations in one week. The bill was announced Friday, protesting began Monday, and is expected to continue going full steam as it has through tomorrow. Tonight is the second night in a row thousands are sleeping at the capitol in order to testify as part of a citizen filibuster of the bill. I slept there last night. It was awesome, but roughed up my whole day today.

If I can find the news article again, it would be to rework financial structuring. There was some article I read yesterday about how the governor himself already stated financial restructuring would cover $165 million of the $167 million that needs to be covered.

There's a lot more I could say, but I need to go do pomegranate if I still want to be on top of my studies and protest tomorrow. Bleh. I'll respond more later if people have other questions.
