‘I Stand With Walker’ Rally Planned For Saturday 02/19/11

18 Feb

Please visit the I Stand With Walker Facebook Page and leave a message of support for Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.

From the page:

Time – Saturday, February 19 · 12:00pm – 3:00pm

Location – Wisconsin State Capitol, East Side of the Building

NOW Featuring Andrew Breitbart of Breitbart.com, Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit, Ned Ryun – President of American Majority, Vicki McKenna, and Herman Cain. More Speakers TBA.

BUS INFORMATION: http://istandwithwalker.com

As the week has progressed, Wisconsin and the Nation have watched schools across Wisconsin close due to teachers participating in a “sick out”, the unions busing people in from other states to inflate their rally numbers in Madison and legislators fleeing the …state to avoid the vote on the budget repair bill.

It’s time the voices of the Wisconsin people are heard.

We’ve had thousands of people show up for tea party events to rally to take our state back – but our work isn’t done. Let’s have our voices heard once again and show our state legislators that we support this bill. We need concerned Wisconsin citizens to show up at noon on Saturday, February 19th to voice our support for Gov. Walker and our conservative legislators! Tell your friends–let’s set a turn out record! Remember to be peaceful and bring those signs!

Also visit the official ‘Stand With Walker’ Website to add your name to the petition in support of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s union stance.

Walker’s policy:

Union dues should be voluntary, and the state should not be in the business of collecting them. Union certification should require a secret ballot. Collective bargaining should not be used to force extravagant pension and health benefits that cripple state budgets.

These common-sense reforms have made the union bosses desperate to disrupt Wisconsin government and overturn an election. They must not be allowed to succeed. In fact, every state should adopt Governor Scott Walker’s common sense reforms.

Clarus Research Poll: 64% of Americans agree with Governor Walker that government employees should not be represented by labor unions.

    It is time that we become the “Vocal” vs. the Silent Majority and make it known that we will not tolerate what is happening in Madison to continue. Teachers – get back to work. I had to be at work all week to pay for your benefits – none of which I can afford to give my staff or myself. It is time that the public employees remember who their employers are… us, and we can’t be quiet any longer. Gov. Walker, THANK YOU! We met at the Lindstrom’s gathering and I was so impressed with your message of change. Thank you for being the man you are who I know will not cave into the demands of these liberals who are out of touch with the people who hire them. God Bless you, your family, and all of those who are fighting for us.

    Maybe it is time all government employees are held to the same restrictions as our military personell. No political organizing.

    If the men and women we send off to risk their lives for the rest of us, are not allowed to collectively bargain, why should we allow publicly funded schools to do so? Just compare average salaries and benfits of our soldiers with those of the teacher’s union and shame them into silence.

    STAND STRONG GOVERNOR WALKER AND STATE LEGISLATORS!!!

    DO NOT COMPROMISE!!!! I was at Madison on Sat, Feb 19th to support you. 90% of the people circling the capital are paid, bused in UNION THUGS that do not live or pay taxes in Wisconsin. These are professional organizers that do not allow us to let our Wisconsin voices be heard.

    PLEASE STAND STRONG – NO COMPROMISE, DO NOT CAVE IN TO UNION THUGS.
