John, 

Restoring workplace freedoms for thousands of workers and increasing
retirement security for employees of small businesses could have taken a
step towards becoming law today. But, action earlier this week by the
Republican majority on the legislature’s budget committee is preventing a
vote, or even debate, on these proposals included in Gov. Tony Evers’
budget plan.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition and demand legislators stand up for workers’ rights
this budget season and beyond.

Among over 540 budget proposals Republicans struck from Gov. Evers’ 2023
budget plan are pro-worker items to:

* Restore collective bargaining rights enjoyed by Wisconsin workers for
decades, ensuring that employees in the Badger State have the freedom
to broker safe working conditions, good wages, and benefits;
* Create a retirement savings program for small business workers across
the state who are not currently covered under employer-sponsored
retirement plans, because nobody should have to worry about whether
they can afford to live after years of hard work.

Workers deserve rights as employees and a secure retirement for a lifetime
of work. Gov. Evers has a plan to do just that, and start mending the
damage right-wing politicians have done.

But Republicans won’t even allow a conversation about it, much less vote
to support workers. 

To make comprehensive workers’ rights a reality in Wisconsin, [ [link removed] ]we need
our elected representatives to fight for it. That means creating things
like better paying jobs, retirement, and safe working conditions. But
right now, we are seeing certain right-wing politicians in Wisconsin
playing partisan politics instead of siding with Wisconsin workers.

Whatever the job, we should have the freedom to have our voices heard in
our workplaces and know that we can safely retire at the end of our
careers.

Together, we can [ [link removed] ]demand that working in safe and healthy conditions and
a comfortable retirement are fundamental freedoms in Wisconsin.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition and demand legislators stand up for workers’ rights
this budget season and beyond.

Thanks for all you do.
A Better Wisconsin Together
