111.70 (4) (mb) Prohibited subjects of bargaining; general municipal employees.

Here's the big one:

Page 112:

230.34 (1) (ax) 1. Notwithstanding pars. (a), (am), and (ar), during a state of emergency declared by the governor under s. 323.10, an appointing authority may discharge any employee who does any of the following:

b. Participates in a strike, work stoppage, sit−down, stay−in, slowdown, or other concerted activities to interrupt the operations or services of state government, including specifically participation in purported mass resignations or sick calls.

So anyone who strikes, will be fired.

Finally judgment is that this bill infringes on the Constitutional right to assembly and redress and will not pass the litmus test in any court based on rule of law.

In a Labor Day address in 1980, Ronald Reagan said:

"These are the values inspiring those brave workers in Poland … They remind us that where free unions and collective bargaining are forbidden, freedom is lost."
