Rep. Cory Mason: Counting Votes & Changing Minds in Wisconsin
April 12, 2011"If people don't have trust and confidence in their elections, it's really hard to have confidence in the democracy writ large," says Wisconsin State Representative Cory Mason, noting the "gross incompetence or malice" involved in the sudden appearance, a day and a half after the polls closed, of 7500 votes for the conservative candidate in his state's Supreme Court race.Rep.

Cory Mason: Beating Walker's Budget
March 3, 2011Last Saturday, with the backdrop of 100,000 protestors, Laura caught up once again with Wisconsin State Assembly member Cory Mason in the Wisconsin State Capitol Building. They spoke about the dirty trick played on House Assembly members last Friday and Cory predicts the massive cuts to education and health care contained in Walker's state budget.Sen.

March 2, 2011"I have received nothing but overwhelming support from my constituents, saying 'We love you but don't come home,'" says Lena Taylor, one of the fourteen Wisconsin state senators who left the state in order to delay a vote on Governor Scott Walker's "budget repair" bill, that would eliminate collective bargaining for state employees.Scot Ross & Rep. Cory Mason: Battles Across Wisconsin
February 23, 2011The fight against Scott Walker's attack on working people isn't just in Madison--and it isn't just about a budget repair bill, say Scot Ross of One Wisconsin Now and State Assemblyman Cory Mason. Hundreds of people are protesting and attending town halls in towns across the state, sometimes towns with only a few thousand people living in them. And if you think the fight is messy now, just wait until Walker rolls out his actual budget.GRITtv Special from Madison, Wisconsin: February 22
February 22, 2011Welcome to the second day of our special coverage from the workers' protests in Madison, Wisconsin! Thanks again to our friends at The Uptake, Free Speech TV, and WORT FM in Madison for making this collaboration happen. The fight in Wisconsin has national implications, and national leaders have made the trip to Madison to express solidarity with the workers and join their struggle. Perhaps none more prominent than Rev. Jesse Jackson, who has been speaking to rallies, and led a march of students back to school today after several days off supporting their teachers.
