I drove down to Madison, Wisconsin on Saturday to participate in demonstrations against an attempt by Governor Scott Walker to strip public employees of their rights to collectively bargain. This was one of the calmest, most well-organized mass protests (estimates ranged from 55,000 to 70,000 people) I’ve ever seen, even when the Tea Party counter-protest was exiting the area through throngs of pro-labor folks.

Here are just a few photos from the day.
