Lucas --
Just when I thought I couldn’t get angrier about the abomination of a budget that legislative Republicans are jamming through in advance of Scott Walker’s presidential campaign announcement, they made it even worse.
Senate Republicans just approved a provision in the budget that would basically repeal Wisconsin’s prevailing wage law, after saying they wouldn’t.
Look, Lucas, we all know Scott Walker is done pretending to care about Wisconsin. But Republicans in the legislature are on the ballot next year and we’ve got to make them pay for rubber-stamping this dangerous budget at the expense of working Wisconsin families.
That’s why we’re launching our Path to the Majority Victory Fund: Can you donate $10 today to help us kickstart it?
Eliminating Wisconsin’s prevailing wage law will take money directly from workers, whether they are in a union or not. That hurts our middle class, which has already seen the largest decline in the nation due to the poor decisions made by the Republicans in charge.
Democrats can do better – and we will.
We have real opportunities to pick up seats in both houses of the legislature next year. But the path back to the majority starts with educating voters all over the state about the dangerous consequences of this budget.
Help us get started by investing $10 or more in our Path to the Majority Victory Fund today.
The money you chip in will help us put the first wave of grassroots organizers on the ground and help us launch aggressive media campaigns that tell voters the truth about what Republicans have done to our state.
Let’s go, fight, and win,
Jake
