Unions in Wisconsin sue to reverse collective bargaining
restrictions on teachers, others
By Scott Bauer
Associated Press
(AP) - Seven unions representing
teachers and other public work-
ers in Wisconsin filed a lawsuit
Thursday attempting to end the
state’s near-total ban on collec-
tive bargaining for most public
employees.
The 2011 law, known as Act 10,
has withstood numerous legal
challenges over the past dozen
years and was the signature leg-
islative achievement of former
Republican Gov. Scott Walker,
who used it to mount a presiden-
tial run.
The latest lawsuit is the first since
the Wisconsin Supreme Court
flipped to liberal control in Au-
gust. But it was filed in a county
circuit court — unlike other ma-
jor cases that have gone directly
to the Supreme Court since its
ideological shift — and will likely
take more than a year to make
its way up for a final ruling.
