Scott Walker trying to secretly cut teacher pay by nearly 1/3, and prevent unions from collective bargaining. This is in reference to Act 10, that Walker said wouldn't harm teachers.

This blatantly lying "Republican Rock Star" corporate-owned tool may not make it intact to the recall election vote on Tuesday! Looks like everything is starting to blow up in his face - even though the FBI said it would hold off on John Doe investigation information until after the election.

Quote:
Later in the memo, they clearly lay it out (see graph in link above).

The "average single base wage" in Option 3 or the "status quo" will go from $56,302.57 to $38,822 in Option 1 (the one that Walker chose). That means on average, the average base wage will drop by 31.1%-- a huge hit to a teacher pay that is already below the national average.

There you have it in the Walker camp's own words: The intention of this rule was to make collective bargaining impossible by pushing the bargaining ceiling for salaries 31.1% below what teachers are being currently paid.
