Sign the statement of support
Dear MoveOn member,
We could be on the verge of losing in Wisconsin.
The Wisconsin 14—the brave Democratic state senators who left the state to stop
the Republican attacks on
workers—are under increasing pressure to return to Wisconsin.
Governor Walker is even threatening to lay off thousands of state workers to
blackmail Democrats into coming
back.1 And as soon as just one Democratic senator returns, Republicans will be
able to jam through their terrible
bill.
Unfortunately, over the last 24 hours there have been credible reports from
blogs and local news reporters that
this is imminent.2
These senators have been away from their homes and families for almost two
weeks now, at great personal cost.
Their bravery has made this whole fight possible, and it can't be easy. That's
why we need to show them that they
have the support of millions of progressives nationwide—and that as long as
they stay strong, we'll stand with them.
Will you add your name to our emergency statement of support? We'll deliver
your signatures and comments electronically,
throughout the day, to the senators or their staffs, so they can see how much
support they have.

The statement of support says: "I support the Wisconsin 14 and will stand with
them in their brave opposition
to Governor Walker's radical attacks on workers."
Thanks for all you do.
