NO MORE CUTS Rally A Success

There were over 500 people at the NO MORE CUTS rally held yesterday at the Courthouse. That was quite impressive, considering that until just minutes before it had been raining and it was turning rather cool.

Many county workers, as one would expect, were there to fight to maintain the high level of service expected from the citizens of Milwaukee County. Also present were members of the crafts and trades unions, the service industry union, members of the County Board, and various other citizens of Milwaukee County who are fed up with Scott Walker's mismanagement of the county as he prepares for yet another run at governor.

The rally also got coverage from WITI-TV, TMJ4 and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
