A State senator wants to take away the right to collective bargaining, from UW System teaching assistants.
UW-Madison’s Teaching Assistants Association has reached a tentative deal with the state after nearly three years of negotiations which included a two day work stoppage. That action got the attention of West Allis Republican, Senator Tom Reynolds. “When the law is broken, is there particular consequences for that, and what should those consequences be?” Reynolds asked. “It’s a violation of state law to go on any kind of illegal work action.”
