Letter
Open letter to the workers of Wisconsin
 |
Dear Sid Ryan,
Reading your comments in, “An Open Letter to the Workers of Wisconsin,”
was a surprise gratefully received. My sister who lives in Port Elgin
forwarded it to us from the Saugeen Times, and we have sent it on to
people in our area who will be pleased to know of your support. We have
been participating with the tens of thousands of others in the state at
the Capitol in Madison and in our own town. People are determined to
make the governor and his Republican Party members respond to our call
for fairness in the budget and for collective bargaining rights to be
continued. One of the chants heard in the demonstrations is, “This is
what democracy looks like.” Workers in unions have conceded to the
governor’s request to pay more for health insurance and pension
contributions, but we will not give up our rights to bargain for working
conditions. Thank you for your support and stay strong in your efforts
for fair working conditions and compensation.
Sincerely,
Karen (O’Rourke) Rundell, Retired Teacher
