AFSCME PEOPLE is pleased to announce our endorsement of Patty Schachtner in Senate District 10 (SD10).

 “AFSCME is looking for candidates around the state who will champion our values and fight for working people in Madison. We saw all that and more in Patty,” said Executive Director of AFSCME Wisconsin, Rick Badger. “We encourage our members to support Patty in her bid for State Senate.”

AFSCME Wisconsin is strongly opposed to proposed Republican legislation (LRB 4052 & 4827) designed to remove the freedom of local governments to manage workers the way they see fit.

LRB 4052 & 4827 reaches deep into the rights of local governments and restricts their ability to legislate fair benefits and treatment of workers. In addition, this legislation curtails the ability of municipalities to pass legislation regarding the minimum wage, occupational licenses and other programs that have had demonstrated success in creating jobs.
