Gov. Scott Walker wants to starve MATC! Rally Thursday at 11:30

What are you going to do about it??

RALLY: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH 11:30A.M. TO 1:00 P.M.

OUTSIDE THE “S” BUILDING
(MATC DOWNTOWN CAMPUS)

Gov. Walker’s bill, which has drawn protests in Madison and around the nation, would destroy public employee unions’ so they couldn’t support keeping MATC a world-class college.

Walker has proposed cutting the MATC budget by millions of dollars, and he will, unless we fight back

His bill would also make it illegal for faculty to protect educational quality, such as

  • Keeping your class sizes small
  • Preventing arbitrary firing of professors for their political views
  • Making sure faculty have a voice in your curriculum and textbooks

Walker’s bill is about raw, political power, not the budget.

Are you going to let him get away with it?

See you at the rally! We’ll march to one of his rich supporters to express our outrage.
