Right to work, in Wisconsin or not?
MOTHERS OF Felons had
chance to talk Governor Scott Walker.
In a brief conversation
with the Governor Walker. A question was asked “If your vision is to move
Wisconsin Forward what about the felons getting Pardons. Since “According to
census data compiled by the Employment and Training Institute at the
UW-Milwaukee in April, 12.8 percent of the state's African American
men are behind bars — twice the national average and well ahead of second-place
Oklahoma, where 10 percent of black men are incarcerated.”Read more: http://host.madison.com/news/local/writers/steven_elbow/bbc-looks-at-wisconsin-s-highest-in-nation-incarceration-rate/article_b1af2c4a-eb50-5ef8-afd3-51eb3c12af82.html#ixzz2s1FqDCpd
Last week also, in the President’s state
of the Union address. The president put in place the Opportunity Act. That
would help the unemployed to find work and train and the underemployed to get a
pay raise that are working for federal contractors. So like the president, that
is working to get Americans working again. The Governor Walker wants to move
Wisconsin Forward, is his motto.
Yet, in this great state of Wisconsin,
the Governor is not doing any pardons. Thus, locking out a population that
cannot get food stamps, federal aid to return to school, nor public housing and
often time denied jobs because of records. My grandmother had a saying “if a
man do not work he will steal.”
Let’s assist Governor Walker in taking
another look at not doing Pardon. Buy calling his constituent line at (608) 266-1212 or
writing his office http://walker.wi.gov/content/contact-us to tell him we want all that is able to work, work.
Register your
voice on this matter. So Wisconsin can move forward as one, instead of some.
