With the constant national narrative on budget cutting from the Republicans and corporate media, there has been very little examination on the consequences of the budget cuts and how these cuts would affect working families across the nation.
Republican Governors across the nation have decided to 'declare war' on union workers under the banner of closing state budget shortfalls. Workers in states like Wisconsin have already agreed to wage and benefit reductions to help lessen the financial cost in state budgets, yet that isn't apparently enough to Governors like Scott Walker. He wants unions of public employees in Wisconsin to give up their ability to collectively bargain.
Laura Flanders of GRITtv travels to Wisconsin to interview various representatives of labor there to get insights on just what is happening there.
Watch.
