  • Public Employees Seek a Voice At Work

    After Gov. Scott Walker unveiled the Wisconsin budget repair bill in February 2011, which sought to end collective bargaining for most public sector unions, thousands of protesters took to the streets of Madison in opposition. Protestors are seen here in front of the Wisconsin State Capitol on March 12, 2011, a day after the bill was passed. A recent poll found that over two-thirds of Democrats, Republicans and independents feel very or somewhat concerned about the current state of American democracy. Photo by Richard Hurd.
