Union busting in Ohio too
What’s happening in Wisconsin, is happening in Ohio too. From Huff Post: Ohio Gov. John Kasich (KAY’-sik) says he expects the state’s Republican-controlled House to pass a bill that would bar all public workers from striking and limit the bargaining rights of their unions.

Fake AIG Outrage
