In Wisconsin our brother and sisters, who are not the union thugs and tools that the right wing is making them out to be, are proving to the world that they are just like regular everyday Americans. Thanks to Nicole at Crooks and Liars for posting this inspiring video for us all to see.

Wisconsin "Budget Repair Bill" Protest Pt 2 from Matt Wisniewski on Vimeo.

I support and work for unions even though I am not a union member as I attend COPE Meetings and support what the Committee on Public Eduction stands for.   COPE is an arm of the AFL-CIO and you can find them in your area.  Go to their meetings and join them because our struggle is just starting.  As progressives we need to march with these folks because they are the biggest hope we have of proving to our country that unions are still needed and are the front line protecting the American Middle Class.

Thanks to the members of AFSCME and their supporters  for standing up for their rights in Wisconsin. Keep up the fight.
