Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker

[Riot]

There is a Wisconsin law that says the Wisconsin capital must be open to free, unrestricted access by the public.

Governor Walker, over the last two days, has tried to circumvent that law, ordering access restricted since late Sunday night (limiting who can come in, denying access to most of the public)

A lawsuit was immediately filed late Sunday evening, with judge contact first thing Monday morning for a hearing to get a temporary restraining order on Walker, on behalf of the owners of the building, the public.

Breaking Reuters: A Dane County circuit court judge ordered Wisconsin authorities on Tuesday to open the Capitol Building in Madison to public access during business hours.

It was not immediately clear whether the temporary restraining order granted by Judge Daniel Moeser would result in a change in the way people have been granted access to the building over the past two days.

Protesters have held demonstrations for two weeks at the Capitol building against Republican Governor Scott Walker's proposal to curb the powers of public sector unions and access was tightened on Monday and Tuesday.

A representative of the Walker administration was not immediately available to comment.

Walker does have a problem: he is supposed to broadcast his budget speech Tuesday, and the protesters are now going to provide background to that, as he couldn't eliminate them and make them go away.

Walker is still trying to screw everyone and anyone associated with the other party:

Holding paychecks for Democratic senators hostage (eliminated direct deposit, passed a resolution they have to come to the floor of the Senate to pick up their paycheck)

Making Democratic Senators current state employees (who are still working in the capital, serving the public) have their work hours signed off on by someone else, not permitted to be signed off by their boss.

Forbidding Democratic Senator current state employees from using the copy machines. Seriously. Walker has forbidden Senate Dem office employees from using their copy machines. If these public employees need copies, they now have to leave their office, go to a main office, get approval, then be allowed to use the copier.
