Had the unions not blown all that money on recalls, those people would not have to be laid off.
That is my thought
The layoffs are being blamed on the governor but are actually the result of mismanagement of union funds by the unions
I heard they unions spent about $35 million on the recall
“Had the unions not blown all that money on recalls, those people would not have to be laid off.”
That is probably much closer to the truth than the reason they are citing.
Good point!
I wonder how many teachers will opt out of the union now that the union can’t steal the dues directly from their pay check. Not much point to being a closed shop is there?
I expect a big up tic in coercion by union goons in WI. They’re quite comfortable with thuggery.
