The protests over Republican Governor Scott Walker's attempt at union-busting continue, Wisconsinites are
firmly on the side of the protesters, so it must be time for Walker to start
issuing threats:
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker warns that state employees could start receiving layoff notices as early as next week if a bill eliminating collective bargaining rights isn't passed soon.
Walker said Tuesday in a statement to The Associated Press that the layoffs wouldn't take effect immediately. He didn't say which workers would be targeted.
Of course. Because if a provision in the bill that doesn't actually do anything to reduce costs isn't passed NOW, it only stands to reason that any further delay will require layoffs. At some point. For some people.
Pathetic.
