Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R) and Glenn Grothman (L) before the start of a Senate hearing at the state Capitol in Madison, Wisconsin, February 25, 2011. The Wisconsin state Assembly early on Friday passed a Republican plan to curb public sector union power, setting up a showdown with Senate Democrats who have fled the state to prevent a vote in that chamber. Tens of thousands of demonstrators from inside and outside the state have converged on Madison in the last two weeks to fight the proposal, which they fear could encourage similar measures in other states and cripple the U.S. labor movement.
