As Wisconsin Unions and the government duke it out, the last few groups join sides of this polarized issue. This time, facing high opposition, a conservative group under the name of GOPAC joins the side of the Republican governor to promote the death of unions within the state.
Politico reports:
The fight for control of the Wisconsin state Senate looks increasingly like a toss-up, as national groups continue gearing up for the recall campaign triggered by anti-union legislation passed last week.
GOPAC has bought airtime to defend Republican state Sen. Randy Hopper for his vote to scale back collective bargaining rights for most government workers.
“Amid all the shouting and contention in Madison, let’s remember these facts: State government is broke. Wisconsin has lost over 150,000 jobs,” says the ad. “Without these reforms, taxes will go up and more jobs will be lost."
The Republicans should prepare to take a blow on the chin for this in the next elections. Democrats and 'undecideds' will decidedly go against the now 'anti-union' right. If the Republicans plan to run for re-election in the state of Wisconsin, they are clearly delusional.
