[QUOTE="jkrelt, post: 357791, member: 1696"] You're correct, YoKramer. The CB would be restricted to just pay. However, this is a pressing issue because it is viewed as an unjust political power play; only diminishing worker rights of unions that did not support Walker for Governor (nurses, teachers, etc...) while protecting rights of unions that gave him campaign funding (police & firefigheters) but more importantly, it is also expected to create a domino effect across the nation; for example, in states like Ohio where the legislature has just proposed to effectively end CB for state workers: [I]On Tuesday morning in Ohio, protesters from across the state began arriving in Columbus, as the state capital braced for the arrival of huge crowds of pro-union demonstrators. The legislature has planned new hearings on a bill that would effectively end collective bargaining for state workers and dramatically reduce bargaining power for local workers, like police officers and firefighters.[/I] NYTimes [url]http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/23/us/23wisconsin.html?_r=1&partner=rss&emc=rss[/url] [/QUOTE]
