Rallies took place across the country today to support Wisconsin's public employees, whose right to bargain collectively is on the verge of decimation thanks to Tea Party Governor Extrodinaire Scott Walker. If you attended a rally in your state please join this diary to recount your experience for all of us following this battle, from California, to Maine, to Alaska, to Hawaii.

A bit of a small point here but I feel compelled to note this in honor of my eighth grade English teacher.

My parents were teachers. I know how hard teachers work. They were dedicated public servants who cared about every one of their kids, day after day, year after year.

The late Senator Edward M. Kennedy was prolific in the amount of legislation that he was able to pass in to law in his 47 years in the U.S. Senate. He excelled in the areas of civil rights, welfare and education. His work has directly benefited millions of Americans and will continue to do so long after his death.

Massachusetts is thank goodness, a very liberal state. Here we are of course represented by Senators Kennedy and Kerry and a for the most part liberal, all Democratic congressional delegation. Our African-American Governor Deval Patrick went to Harvard Law prior to his friend Barack Obama. Both houses of our state legislature have been majority Democratic for many years now. We were so famously the first state to legalize same sex marriage. We have an, albeit weak, version of universal health care in place. Today, when the wingnuts came out to play, we were ready for them.
