Think Progress (2/18/2011) updates on Wisconsin

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) insisted last night that the GOP is "not going to be bullied" or "intimidated" by the massive protests against his anti-union bill. House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) backed Walker as a governor who is "daring to speak the truth."

President Obama accused Walker of unleashing an "assault" on unions
by pushing legislation to nullify collective-bargaining agreements that affect most public employees. The President is mobilizing state and national union officials to organize thousands of protesters in Madison and to plan similar demonstrations in other state capitals.
