The other night, Wisconsin Senate Republicans rammed through union busting legislation that takes away the collective bargaining rights of public workers.
For Republicans to support this blatant assault on workers' rights is outrageous. But the fact that they passed it through a procedural loophole without Senate Democrats present is unconscionable.
We need an immediate, powerful response to let Congressional Republicans across the country know that we won't stand by as the rights of our friends and neighbors are snatched away.

We've set a goal of raising $100,000 in the next 24 hours to show the media, pundits, and most especially the Republicans that grassroots Democrats won't stand for this Republican power grab.
I'm sure you've also been inspired by the teachers, firefighters, and policemen marching in the streets for their rights to organize. The "Wisconsin 14" Democratic Senators' steadfast refusal to sell out working families reminds us all what it means to be a Democrat.
Now, let's show Republicans in Congress that we stand with Wisconsin families and against the radical Republican agenda from Madison to Washington, DC.

Let's make last night's vote the biggest mistake that Republicans ever made.
