During his campaign for governor, Walker was endorsed by the Wisconsin State
Troopers, as well as the Milwaukee Police and Firefighters associations and
the West Allis Professional Police.
In all, five public employee unions endorsed Walker, and four of the five
are completely unharmed by Walker's budget repair bill, WISC-TV reported.
Walker has denied that the unions are getting political payback.
Some police would lose union rights under the bill, including Capitol and
University of Wisconsin police. Walker said their work can be covered in the
event of a slowdown, while local protection can't.
When asked why union rights should be any different for police, fire and
state inspectors, Walker said that overall there is a different expectation.
"Currently, we've had a long tradition and when it comes to fire and police
service in the state of Wisconsin. Statutes are very different when it comes
to whole series of rights and responsibilities," Walker said. |
