Michigan, Ohio voters send wake-up call to anti-worker politicians

Mid­dle class vot­ers reject­ing extreme anti-worker agenda

Yes­ter­day vot­ers in Michi­gan and Ohio went to the polls and sent a mes­sage to every anti-worker politi­cian in Amer­ica that there is a price to pay for turn­ing your back on the mid­dle class.

Here in Michi­gan, vot­ers removed state Rep. Paul Scott (R-Grand Blanc) from office, fol­low­ing his votes to cut schools, tax pen­sions, and pro­vide a huge $1.8 bil­lion tax give­away to big cor­po­ra­tions. Scott is the first Michi­gan law­maker to be recalled by vot­ers since 1983, one year after he was born.
