Recently I marched in Madison with tens of thousands of other people, shouting, ?This is what democracy looks like.? I was so proud to be a Wisconsinite and an American. A few days later, I went with a group to a small hearing room in the state Capitol, where I witnessed the trampling of democracy by three Republicans. They let us speak, but they didn?t listen; two weren?t even in the room most of the time. They took a vote, but they didn?t deliberate. And what they decided was to rob the voters of Milwaukee of their paid sick days victory.
