Madison, Feb. 13: Day of Action Against the Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce

http://tinyurl.com/b5wzyw8

On Wednesday, February 13, Governor Walker is having his annual “performance review” in front of his real bosses. No, not the people of Wisconsin. The corporate lobby group Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce (WMC), an affiliate of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

WMC and its secret corporate backers are the entities that really run the show in Wisconsin. They buy elections. Undermine democracy. And pass laws that enrich the very wealthy at the expense of working people, youth, the poor, nature, and our communities.

February 13th is the day that WMC holds its traditional annual lobby day. It is time to end this tradition. It’s time for a Wisconsin Day of Action against WMC. http://tinyurl.com/b5wzyw8
