Capitol Chaos: Huge Protests Today
By Jay Olstad

MADISON - As the drum beat of protesters continue to funnel in and out of the State Capitol, union leaders claim they have planned for the biggest protest Thursday.

“We’re expecting tens of thousands of workers in their home districts to be talking to their state senators and representatives about supporting workers rights,” said Phil Neuenfeldt, Wisconsin AFL-CIO president.

Neuenfeldt says people won’t just be protesting in Madison, but throughout the state, calling it the largest effort of its kind in Wisconsin history.
