Wicsonsin's John Erpenbach rallies the citizens in Fond du Lac |
|
Just got back from Wisconsin State Senator John Erpenbach's meet & greet in Fond du Lac.
John was articulate, as always, explaining to the gathering of machinests, corrections officers, teachers and other supporters, why the "Fab 14" went to Illinois to block passage of Scott Walker's horrible "budget repair" bill.
"We figured we'd be there about 20 minutes" said John of what ended up being a month-long Constitutional action.
"Read the bill" said John. "That's all you have to tell anyone who questions you on this. Read the bill."
John was well versed on not only the content of this monstrosity, but also on just what that meant for the people of Wisconsin. He addressed issues of jobs in various public and private sectors, impact on small businesses, benefits given away to big business and environmental destruction.
When asked directly, John said he "hasn't thought about" a run for governor, and wouldn't give it any consideration until after the April 5th election. Others thought differently; Erpenbach for Governor - 2012 Tee Shirts were availabe for a $10 donation.
