Ohio Legislative Black Caucus, clergy speak out against Senate Bill 5
www.cleveland.com
One of the most poignant moments belonged to the Rev. Marvin McMickle of Antioch Baptist Church, who told how a great-uncle was shot dead in Kentucky in 1930 for demanding to register to vote.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- "More than 150 people filled the basement of Olivet Institutional Baptist Church on Saturday to hear legislators denounce what has come to be known as Ohio Senate Bill 5, saying it strips away collective-bargaining rights of public employees and will disproportionately affect the black community.

It was a town-hall meeting setting, and many of the comments drew standing ovations from audience members at the East Side Cleveland church. Local speakers were joined by a Wisconsin legislator who is embroiled in a similar fight in her state. She said the issues cross state lines." Full Article | cleveland.com

If I put these Sandy Pasch Campaign buttons on Ebay... a package of 10 for 15$, (free S&H) and you could pay through paypal, would anyone be interested? (I'm an art teacher with a button business that I run out of my home in Northern WI - Jim Holperin's district)
Just wondering, because I've noticed many of you have been asking for yard signs and I'd be glad to help your campaign efforts! If there is interest... I'll post an auction on Ebay.

Report on Walker's attempts to quietly consolidate power in the state. According to Scott Ross from One Wisconsin Now, Walker's actions are "turning Wisconsin’s state government from a body that is charged with serving the needs of the people of Wisconsin, into making its first priority serving corporations — both inside and outside of Wisconsin."

Wow... he says the exact same thing that I propose as a question to every political candidate that I encounter on the local level... sustainable communities - not relying on "investment", "growth" or "business" as a solution. I agree wit...h him - dark times ahead - sure, it might be 20 years out and we might see a few more war fronts that are truly wars for resources, but the empire is on the way out. How many foreign military bases are there in the USA? How many do we have outside our borders? What percentage of discretionary is spent on war? Compared to the rest of the world? Why so much fear, hatred and racism? This is all the antithesis of any sane vision of a 21st Century that I can imagine. The enemy is us.
