In last Thursday’s debate, Tom Barrett completely dresses down Scott Walker for using a dead baby in his latest disgusting and desperate ad against Tom Barrett.

Stand with Wisconsin
Wisconsin holds a special place in my heart. I grew up in the suburbs outside Milwaukee in a small town called Mequon. Though my family moved to Michigan when I was in high school, I still consider Wisconsin home in many ways and I want to see its people succeed. When Gov. Scott Walker launched his attack on working families and Wisconsin communities last year, I wanted to find ways I could help. That’s why I will be using the new Friends and Neighbors (FAN) tool in the coming weeks to get the word out to friends and other Wisconsinites about recalling Walker and other anti-working family candidates on June 5. A recent poll shows the race is a dead heat1 and it is going to come down to the side that turns out the most people from now until June 5. Walker and his political allies are relying on millions in out-of-state donations from corporate donors and right-wing billionaires to blanket the state with misleading ads. They may have unlimited money, but we can cut through the noise by having real conversations with Wisconsinites about how Walker’s policies are wrong for them and their communities. Click here now to sign up for the FAN and get started connecting with Wisconsin voters. Let’s show Walker in these final weeks leading up to the recall elections on June 5 that working families in Wisconsin and across the country are more united than ever and ready to stand against the extreme policies that are leading our country in the wrong direction. In Solidarity, Andy Richards P..S. Need some more motivation? Check out this video that recently surfaced of Walker talking about his strategy to “divide and conquer” working families. |

AAUW: Earth To Congress
| Earth to Congress: Women are Breadwinners Too! | |
| It’s time to do something about unequal pay | |
|
Last month, Wisconsin repealed its Equal Pay Enforcement Act. In the run-up to that vote, a state legislator said: “You could argue that money is more important for men. I think a guy in their first job, maybe because they expect to be a breadwinner someday, may be a little more money-conscious.” Oh, really? Women aren’t breadwinners? And it’s okay to discriminate because women are expecting to be taken care of? So much so that Wisconsin doesn’t need a strong fair pay law? Sorry, pal; Wisconsin DOES need better fair pay laws — in fact, women across the nation need stronger fair pay laws. We need the Paycheck Fairness Act (S. 797). In the next few weeks, we expect a vote on this important bill. The vote could come at any moment, so we need you to contact your Senators today. Tell your senators to support fair pay: Cosponsor and support the Paycheck Fairness Act (S. 797)! The Paycheck Fairness Act would deter wage discrimination by closing loopholes in the Equal Pay Act and barring retaliation against workers who disclose their own wages to coworkers. Without this bill, employers can penalize and even fire employees for talking about their salaries. This egregious practice leaves workers in the dark, preventing them from ever finding out about pay discrimination in the workplace. So send a message today to help make unequal pay a thing of the past! To send a message, visit AAUW Two-Minute Activist or click on the “Take Action” link in the upper right hand corner of this email. Remember: You can always help strengthen AAUW’s efforts to fight sexual violence and assault by making a tax-deductible donation to AAUW’s Public Policy Fund! Double your impact! Forward this action alert to friends and family. |

the DFA Wisconsin Recall Campaign.
This is it. DFA’s campaign to recall right-wing Gov. Scott Walker and four anti-union, anti-middle class Wisconsin Republican Senators is ready to go — and it’s the biggest campaign we’ve ever run.
– We’re going to be on the air with new hard-hitting TV, radio and web ads against Walker and his Republican cronies for their work to destroy unions and middle class families.
– We’re going to be on the ground with a massive door-to-door canvass, knocking on 127,353 doors in 35 days. Wisconsin Campaign Manager Kaili Lambe is on the ground right now hiring staff for our biggest-ever ground campaign.
– We’re talking directly to voters and having real Wisconsinites tell their stories because it’s the most effective tactic to win support and Get Out The Vote. A grassroots campaign run on people-power like this one is the only thing that can beat big corporate money — it’s the only thing that ever has. But we can’t do it without you.
Please chip in $8 right now to the DFA Wisconsin Recall Campaign.
Gov. Walker reminded us this week exactly what’s at stake when he pushed through a plan to throw more than 17,000 low-income Wisconsinites off Medicaid.
Wisconsin isn’t the only state where Republicans have launched all-out War on Working Families like this. But other right-wing Governors are taking their cues from Walker and his cronies.
Wisconsin is the front line in the War on Working Families and this recall campaign is our biggest ever. Join us now to put us over the top in the June 5 recall and send a message to Republicans across the country — attack the middle class and you lose.
Please contribute $8 now.
Thank you for everything you do.
