Washington County Republican Party

Below is the letter I sent to 18 of the 19 Wisconsin State Senators today who voted to limit the Wisconsin public employees collective bargaining advantages. Please contact the Republican Senators to show your support. Senator Schultz was the only Republican to not vote for this. Wisconsin Senate contact page

Senator,

Thank you so much for having the courage to take a principled stand for the taxpayers of Wisconsin in limiting some of the public employee’s collective bargaining advantages. The world is watching and has been impressed that Republican patriots in Wisconsin are standing up against strong outside pressures. Please know that many of us strongly agree with what you are doing and fully support this movement to bring government spending under control at all levels.

We will be watching intently as Obama Chicago-style politics attempt to gin up recalls against Republican patriots. Please know you have our sincere appreciation and support, both politically and financially. Keep up the great work!

Sincerely,
John W. Orr
Washington County Republican Party Chairman
Blair, Nebraska
