SHAME on Waukesha: Protest for Election Integrity

Posted on Facebook by | Progressives of Waukesha County

We cannot sit quietly by and let this "sloppiness" slide into our recall elections!
People worked too hard collecting those signatures.

The legislature should be willing to spend as much effort and resources assuring Election Integrity as they have fighting the .003% instances of voter "fraud".

The Joint Finance Committee adopted the governor’s recommendation to transfer administrative functions of the Secretary of State’s office to the DOA and DFI.

Sen. Lena Taylor, D-Milwaukee, said lawmakers were overstepping their authority by taking away duties from a constitutionally-elected officer.

"We're broke."

Or so claim governors and lawmakers all over the country. Our states and our nation can no longer afford, their plaint goes, the programs and services that Americans expect government to provide. We must do with less. We need "austerity."

But we're not broke. Not even close. The United States of America is awash in wealth. Our corporations are holding record trillions in cash. And overall individual wealth in the United States, the Credit Suisse Research Institute reported this past fall, has risen 23 percent since the year 2000, to $236,213 per American adult.

Posted on Facebook by | AFSCME

Data from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections makes it clear once again: prison privatization doesn't save taxpayers money. The time has come to end this failed social experiment and provide public correction departments with the resources they need to run secure state prisons.
Private Prison Savings Are a Hoax

A report today by The New York Times – confirming what AFSCME has said all along – indicates it actually costs taxpayers more to let private prison corporations run state correctional facilities than it does to operate them using public service workers.

John Nichols: Effort to thwart voter suppression necessary and appropriate





Posted on Facebook by | The Capital Times

John Nichols gives a little history lesson on voter rights in Wisconsin. Expanding access used to be a bipartisan issue in this state, so the fact that the Legislature passed the voter ID bill today shows how much our GOP legislators are being corralled by national conservative groups.

The voter ID bill is not a Wisconsin idea. It is an imported proposal, designed by national strategists on the right — and their corporate allies — as part of a broad strategy to undo the political progress of the past century. Full Article Here

Former Planned Parenthood Board Member Alberta Darling Votes to Gut Planned Parenthood Health Services for Women

Former Planned Parenthood Board Member Alberta Darling Votes to Gut Planned Parenthood Health Services for Women

Posted on Facebook by | Sandy Pasch for State Senate

"Sen. Darling puts ideological purity above women's health care just to cater to the extreme political bosses in Madison, and that's never been what the people of the 8th senate district look for in their representative," said Pasch. "We want reasonable leaders who won't let hardline politics interfere with important priorities like women's health. Darling no longer represents the values of our district, and it's time to elect a senator who does."

Sen. Darling's continued departure from the sensible middle to the radical right comes as she maintains her deafening silence while the Walker Administration refuses to defend critical domestic partner protections, such as allowing people to visit loved ones in the hospital or take time to care for a sick or injured partner."

More privatization in the news and no matter what is being privatized one or more of ALEC's "special friend" corporate members stand to profit from such efforts. In addition we have the Koch's now discovered influencing education provided in our public universities. My my, them folks are certainly

"The pursuit of profits for ALEC member's CCA and Geo, from imprisonment drove ALEC to conspire on the writing and presenting SB 1070 legislation first in Arizona and now in more than 20 other states. Since the 2010 election cycle they have worked to expand prison privatization in Florida, Wisconsin, Ohio, Maine, Michigan and several other Republican held states. This is similar to the initiatives of ALEC and Koch Industries discrediting global warming and other important EPA claims. They believe if they say it often enough, people will begin to believe their rhetoric...or if not that, the arguments will become so complex and confusing to the public they'll lose interest in the discussion."
