Matt Rothschild of the Democracy Campaign comments on Wisconsin State Senator who gave themselves a 31% pay bump, Walker and for-profit colleges, and Ed Garvey. MADISON - I can’t give myself a raise. Can you? Finally, I’m in mourning this week over the crushing news that Ed Garvey passed away. Ed was a friend of mine, and a towering figure in the battle for democracy here in Wisconsin and across the country. I wrote a tribute to him that I’d like to share with you: **** P.S. Tuesday, March 7, is The Big Share -- a day of online giving to support more than 60 member nonprofits of Community Shares of Wisconsin. #CSWBigShare is yet another amazing way to support a collective fight for social justice in our communities. You can support the good work of the Democracy Campaign in this exciting collaborative fundraiser -- give BIG and help lift our voice in the fight for real democracy in Wisconsin! |
