Stand up for local control in Wisconsin: Stop AB 750
Rep. Chris Kapenga has just introduced a bill that would make Wisconsin's local living wage ordinances illegal. This is an assault on local control and hampers local efforts to fight income inequality. Stand against A.B. 750.
Why is this important?
AB 750, ripped straight out of the ALEC model-legislation playbook, will decimate what remains of Wisconsin local control. The anti-living wage initiative makes it impossible for local municipalities to enact regional ordinances to fight record income inequality.
Tea-party obstructionists, corporate meddlers, and Milwaukee's millionaire County Executive Chris Abele are using state preemption to undermine the will of the people. It's a direct attack on democracy, don't stand for it!
