ActBlue — Recall Al Pscholka
Posted by Heartland Revolution | Save Benton Harbor
It is time to send a message to Rick Snyder's minions that we are not going to roll over and play dead while they rob our democracy. The first step of many is to recall Al Pscholka from Michigan's 79th House District for the following reasons:
For sponsoring and supporting Public Act 4 that has robbed the citizens in District 79, namely the city of Benton Harbor, of their democratic rights. (1) Empowering a non-elected emergency financial manager. (2) Striking local municipal government representation for, of and by the people.
Join the fight today by chipping in to make this recall happen!

Grocers group warns members of product defacement

WISCONSIN - A Wisconsin grocers group says political anger could be hitting local shelves.
The Wisconsin Grocers Association told its members, opponents of Governor Scott Walker are planning to deface store products on Sunday.
It says they may be slapping stickers on specific grocery items. The group believes it's an expansion of an ongoing push for consumers to boycott companies that have donated to the governor's campaign.
"If somebody goes in and defaces property, putting a sticker on it, graffiti, whatever it is, they're breaking the law," Association President Brandon Scholz said. "We wanted our members to be aware of it, in case something happened in their store."
He says AngelSoft toilet paper, Sargento Cheese, Johnsonville brats and Coors beer are among the targeted products. See Full Article Here

"On May 1, left-wing vigilantes will target companies across the country that have committed a mortal sin: sending donations to GOP Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin. Rest assured, such intolerable acts of political free speech will not go unpunished by tolerant Big Labor activists. They're calling for both a national boycott of Walker's corporate donors and a coordinated sticker vandalism campaign on GOP-tainted products.
The Wisconsin Grocers Association is bracing for the anti-Walker witch hunt. Anonymous operatives have circulated sabotage stickers on the Internet and around Wisconsin that single out Angel Soft tissue paper ("Wiping your (expletive) on Wisconsin workers"), Johnsonville Sausage ("These Brats Bust Unions") and Coors ("Labor Rights Flow Away Like A Mountain Stream"). Earlier this week, a "Stick It To Walker" website boasted photos of vandalized Angel Soft tissue packages at a Super Foodtown grocery store in Brooklyn, N.Y.
This destruction of private property is illegal. Not that it matters to anti-Walker protest mobsters, who trampled Wisconsin's Capitol at an estimated $5 million in security, repair and cleaning costs to taxpayers. According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, "The identity of the backers of the sticker effort is unknown, although many assume it is being orchestrated by public employee unions. This latest effort follows boycotts organized by members of the Wisconsin State Employees Union AFSCME 24."Full Article Here

Letters: Walker no friend of Wisconsin's middle class
http://www.sheboyganpress.com/article/20110428/SHE0601/104280322/Letters-Walker-no-friend-Wisconsin-s-middle-class
Have you noticed that our governor is much more interested in redistributing Wisconsin's wealth than in saving it?
While testifying recently before Congress, Gov. Walker finally admitted that destroying unions hadn't saved Wisconsin any money. And giving $117 million in tax breaks to large corporations certainly doesn't save any money. The Bush administration tax cuts that gave billions to the rich are still in effect. This takes money away from the middle class, which needs it to save their homes and support families.

Bing to call for emergency manager for Detroit? | Michigan Messenger"Most Michigan city officials dread almost nothing more than the appointment of an emergency manager to oversee their affairs, especially now that those overseers have virtually limitless authority. But Detroit Mayor Dave Bing is threatening to request one if unions don’t accept his demands.
Detroit Mayor Dave Bing said Thursday that he’ll request a state-appointed emergency financial manager if the city’s 48 employee unions don’t make health care concessions, or if the state does not agree to extend the city’s special allowance for income and utility taxes."

Bay City teachers union leader: The funding crisis is 'manufactured'
www.mlive.com
As proposed state budget cuts loom over public education in Michigan, some teachers unions are preparing for a fight.
“You’re on the record vehemently opposing Gov. Rick Snyder’s proposed budget, which calls for significant cuts to public education funding. If you were governor, what would you have budgeted for education?
A: I wonder if the people who voted Snyder in would say they voted him in to manufacture this (funding) crisis. If I were governor, I wouldn’t have taken $900 million from the School Aid Fund and transferred it to higher education. I wouldn’t have manufactured this funding crisis.
But I guess you can’t attack the unions in the way that they are unless there’s a funding crisis, and they found a way to manufacture one.” | Full Article Here| MLive.com

Your Invitation is Here | Hold M&I Accountable - Move Your Money!!
Do you want to hold Scott Walker and Alberta Darling accountable for their attack on teachers, students, and Wisconsin's working families?
Then hold M&I Bank accountable!
Saturday, April 30 · 10:00am - 11:00am
"M&I executives donated over $260,000 to Governor Scott Walker and his republican allies, the elected officials responsible for the recent attacks on Wisconsin workers. State Senator Alberta Darling alone has received $17,000 in contributions from the bank. Darl...ing is one of the leading lawmakers in the efforts to remove workers' rights in our state, gut our schools, and kick tens of thousands off healthcare.
But that's not all. M&I Bank was the largest recipient of taxpayer bailout money in Wisconsin -- receiving over $1.7 billion. They have not paid back any of this taxpayer money, forcing a deal to sell out to a Canadien bank. When that deal closes in July, the bank will move its headquarters out of Milwaukee to Chicago, potentially costing our city hundreds of jobs.
And despite leading the bank into financial collapse, M&I executives will receive $71 million in golden parachutes when the bank is sold. Even worse, CEO Mark Furlong will receive $24 million in severence pay and keep a management position at the bank! "See Invite Here

About
Scott Walker Won His Election with 1,128,159 Votes November 2010. January 1st 2012 is when he is eligible for an election Recall, which will need 25% of votes total for that election. We Need 539,681 people to sign a petition to enact the recall vote!
Description
After Much Deception and disappointment from the Wisconsin 2012 Elections, Scott Walker Won His Seat as Governor of Wisconsin in 2010, with his term Starting on January 1st,2011.
Already, Many people are saying that the is the most controversial Governor in Wisconsin History, and has Claimed the title as the Worst, all before Being Sworn in.
After Lying about reallocating the $810 million dollars we lost for the train, Potential "threats" of gouging state workers for a ton of money to make up for the deficient and overall Stupidity of his actions, people are already ready to call it quits on this guy.
Unfortunately, Law won't allow us to give this guy the boot instantly. We have to wait for at least one year into his term before anything can be done. Once January 1st, 2012 hits, People are eligible to file a recall petition with the state, and then have 60 days to obtain enough signatures to begin the re-election. Only then will we have a chance to get rid of the abomination that is Scott Walker
The democratic vote received 1,005,159 for Tom Barrett and lost. Can We get at least 53.7% of you to sign this come January 1st,2012? That seems Highly Attainable, Right?
