After voting on June 5 we have to make our voices heard in order to hold our Governor accountable. Occupy Milwaukee, community allies and labor unions will march on June 6 to make the following demands of our Governor:

1. Repeal Act 10 – We demand Wisconsin return to full collective bargaining for public employee unions.
2. Restore the Equal Pay Act – We demand essential civil rights and compensation for victims of discrimination based on gender, ethnicity, physical ability and sexual identity.
3. Tax the 1% – Hold the banksters and the 1% accountable for their economic crisis, and stop the cuts to working and oppressed people.

We will rally at Pier Marquette Park before marching on Milwaukee’s banking district.

Sponsors (in progress) – Occupy Wisconsin, Occupy Milwaukee, 9 to 5, Amalgamated Transit Union Local 998, Welfare Warriors, Casa Maria, Iraq Veterans Against the War, AFSCME 82, Milwaukee Students for a Democratic Society, Wisconsin Bail Out The People Movement…
