Democrats flee Wisconsin to avoid union vote

Eileen Norcross | Feb 18, 2011

Eileen Norcross talked about collective bargaining in Wisconsin on two radio shows this week, Marketplace and WBEN Radio.

 

One of the problems, and not just in Wisconsin but throughout the country, is that these plans have been undervalued, underfunded. And a lot of that is driven by the kind of benefit enhancements that were granted in the past, as the result of collective bargaining. And those things are very hard to undo.
