Gov Walker's job killing policies continue, as I have been pointing out for months. The job numbers for October were just released and it is bad news. We lost another 9,700 jobs, 9,300 in the private sector.

Wisconsin has lost jobs every month since Gov. Walker signed his mean, extreme budget in June. Republicans are already blaming the national economy, yet Wisconsin has lost 27,600 jobs since the budget was passed, while the U.S. has added 427,000 jobs in that same period.
