Kaja Rebane, a UW-Madison graduate student in environmental studies, is one of the leaders of the South Central Wisconsin Move to Amend chapter. The group is dedicated to fighting the U.S. Supreme Court?s January 2010 Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission decision, which says corporations have free speech rights just like people do and that money spent on political campaigns counts as speech.
….Rebane is also an active member of the Teaching Assistants Association union and protested at the state Capitol for much of last week against Gov. Scott Walker?s budget repair bill, which would strip public employee unions of almost all their bargaining power as well as increase worker contributions for health and retirement benefits.
