Today Gov. Scott Walker, the lieutenant governor and four state senators will answer to the people of Wisconsin for their extreme, and unparalleled attacks on workers and collective bargaining rights. Despite the mega-millions in spending by Scott Walker via billionaire out-of-state backers, polls show the race to recall Walker is incredibly close. In fact, a poll released just last week shows the race is a dead heat with momentum going our way.
You don’t have to be in Wisconsin to help. There is something you can do right now:
Help get out the vote. The most effective thing you can do is pick up the phone and call Wisconsin voters. The AFL-CIO has a new tool to make it easy for you to do so. You can make calls to voters in Wisconsin right at your computer.
This is the first-ever gubernatorial recall in Wisconsin history. No matter what happens on Tuesday, one thing is certain: anti-worker lawmakers across the country will think twice before going after our rights and the public services. Help us make history by taking action today:
