An e-mailer mistakenly, for some reason, thinks this blog is a liberal blog and they sent me to a web site name Jobs for Justice blog.
Well, they have a list rallies that will be held in the very near future. These rallies are not some poor government employee run rallies, they are well organized and more than likely run by Democrats from Washington.
Some activities coming up: The week of February 21st, workers, community, faith, and students will come together to rally in support of workers under attack in Wisconsin and across the country. Below is a list of actions we know are planned so far. More details are coming in all the time, so check back for updates. Post in the comments if you’re planning something & we’ll add it to the list.

Note that they have buses from Chicago going to Madison for the rally.
Also funny, is that Jobs with Justice has no coalition affiliated with them from Wisconsin.
So, if you live in the States mentioned and there are several more, beware of a bunch of unsavory people from out of state to march in which they have no connection.
So, again, if anyone thinks that these rallies are just a bunch of teachers and state and local government workers, they are sadly mistaken.
Sunrise — 5:59, 5:59, 6:00, 6:20.

The out-of-state union workers were not hiding their identity yesterday. There were plenty of signs from Illinois unions in particular. There were also some individuals with signs like "Flatlanders for Wisconsin Workers" and "This Bears Fan Stands with Wisconsin." The show of solidarity from out-of-state was no secret.
