Here are some pics from inside the capitol and last Saturday's protest. They estimate 70,000 people were there-it was definitely the largest protest I have ever been in!
Gov. Walker is still set on getting rid of most collective bargaining for unions. He announced more details of his budget for 2012 and there will be huge cuts and loss of jobs: http://bit.ly/dXIuJ9. The 14 Democratic senators are still in Illinois, avoiding having to vote on the repair bill. The capital is now not allowing people in unless they are with the media or work there, but there are some protestors inside who refused to leave. They let them stay and sleep there, but if they leave, they cannot get back in.
If you want to follow what is going on here in Wisconsin, you can go to these links (and of course my blog!):
