You may have heard about the bill that Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin has introduced to abolish collective bargaining by the state employees. Masked as en effort to save the state money, it is actually a move to destroy the unions.
The Stayer family - founders of Johnsonville Company (you know, brats and other good things!) - and the Gentine family - founders of Sargento Co (think cheese!) were major donors to Walker's campaign.
You can support Wisconsin workers by a/ boycotting these companies and b/ calling or emailing the companies to let them know why you will not purchase their products.
For more information on donors to Scott Walker's campaign, you can go to Wisconsin Democracy Campaign's Follow the Money webpage.
