The Dayton Daily News online reports that the two states both have Republican governors. Ohio is looking to rein in union labor to battle billions of state budget deficits, and Wisconsin had many rallying (25,000) in opposition to the plan that would eliminate collective bargaining for most public employees.
The Daily News Pulse reports that: "If approved the bill would abolish collective bargaining rights for state employees. It would also affect state agencies, commissions and boards, state institutions of higher educations and set new restrictions on school districts. Additionally, the bill required merit-based pay for most public employees, including teachers, and it removes seniority from decisions regarding reduction in work force for certain public workers."
Some people are even calling this the "anti-union" bill.
