Nevadans make their voices heard in rallies across the State - Las Vegas Democrat | Examiner.com

Earlier today Nevada union members and non-union members showed up to support Wisconsin workers who are protesting in their State capitol, as Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker (R) tries to bust the teachers union. The teachers union has offered to take cuts in salaries, medical benefits and pension contributions, but they refuse to allow their collective bargaining rights to be stripped. They have now been protesting for eight days.

The two rallies held simultaneously in Nevada, one in Las Vegas and the other in Carson City at noon, had turn outs in the hundreds. The rallies were designed to show solidarity with the state workers in Wisconsin.
