Pictures: Monday Produces More Energy At Wisconsin State Capitol Union Protests

Madison dodged a major winter storm this weekend, but the perfect political storm kept howling from under the Capitol Dome and all around the Square.    With pride in labor, a kinship of convictions, and the belief that movement was on their side thousands turned out on Monday to protest Scott Walker and his assault on union workers.

Here then is a sampling of today’s sights.

Below was woman who stood near me from a Japan news organization.  She had traveled up from Chicago to report on labor and the unfair treatment of teachers in Wisconsin.  I glanced at her script and it was all written in Japanese…just a wonderful sight to see…knowing this story is international.
