STATEMENT OF U.S. SENATOR HERB KOHL ON WISCONSIN'S BUDGET AND PUBLIC WORKER PROTESTS
2/18/11
"So many of our friends and neighbors feel that the value of their important work serving Wisconsin is being questioned. This has been a week of unprecedented mobilization for things we all believe in. My hope is that the State Senate's adjournment offers an opportunity for cooler heads and bi-partisan solutions. The same voices that teach our young people and serve and protect our public institutions have a right to be heard at the bargaining table."
