Scott Walker REJECTED: Wisconsin Judge Halts Anti-Union Law

[steelmania75]

From Huffington Post:

MADISON, Wis. — A Wisconsin judge for the second time directed the state to put on hold an explosive law that strips most public workers of nearly all their union bargaining rights, ordering officials on Tuesday to follow her original instructions to stand down.

"Apparently that language was either misunderstood or ignored, but what I said was the further implementation of (the law) was enjoined," said a visibly annoyed Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi. "That is what I now want to make crystal clear."

Earlier this month, Sumi issued an emergency injunction prohibiting the Wisconsin secretary of state from formally publishing the law – the final step before it could take effect.

Republican legislative leaders responded by directing the law be published by another state agency, and then declared it valid. State officials began implementing the law this weekend, stopping the collection of union dues for state workers and taking more from their pay for health care and retirement.

2. I wonder if Walker is extracting the extra pay for health care and retirement via

ceridian... He set this system up in Milwaukee co. and used an accounting tool that turned overtime into straight time and paid it out...

6. This means nothing. The judge only has the force of law behind him. Walker will pay no attention.

Laws are for liberals and the masses.
High ranking Republicans can ignore it with aplomb.
They know that they are immune from any kind of retribution.
Bush and his cronies demonstrated that.
They are free to run the country to their own advantage and no one can do a thing about it.

There still is a long way to go.
