The four Democratic candidates for Governor of Wisconsin, in the state’s recall top-tier recall election, met Wednesday night in Madison for a candidate forum hosted by the Dane County Democrats.
A top subject was how to reverse Gov. Scott Walker’s legislation that removed most collective bargaining for public employees. Former Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk has pledged to veto a state budget that does not include collective bargaining, and has picked up the support of organized labor going into the May 9 primary. Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, by contrast, hopes to work with the legislature and pass a separate bill.
Here is the report from the local NBC affiliate in Madison.
