Read Arizona: Worse than Wisconsin – Fight Back! now from Blog for Arizona for Politics from a Liberal Viewpoint

Senate Minority Leader David Shapira was a guest on The Ed Show on Wednesday night, discussing Governor Jan Brewer and her Tea-Publican legislature's full-scale assault on public employee unions and workers rights in the Arizona legislature this week. These bills would make Arizona the most anti-union, anti-worker's rights state in the union. And it is all being coordinated by the Goldwater institute, the corporate funded ALEC partner.

Sen. Shapira has set up the web page solidarity.az.org at Stand up for the Middle Class – David Schapira for Congress for a petition (look for the logo below) that you can sign and to receive updates on these draconian bills to allow you to make public comments on these bills — not that our super-majority Tea-Publican legislature gives a damn what you or anyone else thinks. This is Tea-Publican tyranny, and they must all be removed from office.

I have never seen a people more apathetic and resigned to accepting abuse than Arizonans. What the hell is wrong with you people? Our brothers and sisters in Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana have stood up and turned out hundreds of thousands of protestors into the streets to fight back against the Tea-Publican tyranny. They have defeated Gov. Kasich in Ohio and they are about to recall Gov. Walker and Tea-Publican senators in Wisconsin. What's it going to take for Arizonans to slip off your shackles and to stop bowing your heads in defeat and to stand up and Fight Back! Take back our state!
