Oneida St – Menasha Message From the Chair: Which Side Are You On? There is a great old union song, one of my favorites called “Which Side Are You On”. It was written in response to a coal strike Harlan County, KY. The powerful, simple point of the song is that if you do not take a stand, you will be rolled over and left behind in this world. Whether it is in the labor battles, or the political arena, if we do not demand our rights and fairness, we will be lost. The 3 rd verse of the song is: “They say in Harlan County / There are no neutrals there. / You'll either be a union man / Or a thug for J. H. Blair (the local sheriff that was attempting to break the strike).” This translates perfectly into today’s political battles. Which side are you on? Do you stand with Sen. Kohl for America’s elderly and workers, or the Republican opponent pushing yet more expensive healthcare. Do you stand with Sen. Feingold and defend our freedom, or with the irresponsible policies of the Bush administration? Which side are you on? Will you stand with our Assembly Candidates who want to go to Madison and fight for campaign reform and a return to funding local services? Or by doing nothing, will you stand with the Republicans that are starving our schools, courts and municipal services? Are you with Democrats statewide that are fighting for equal rights for all Wisconsin families, or with the Winnebago Republican politicians all of whom voted to write two sentences into our constitution making many of our friends and neighbors second-class citizens? Will you stand with our Democratic candidates for Coroner and District Attorney, both of whom are fighting to restore dignity to tarnished offices? We need your help now, the fall’s fighting has begun, and there is less than 100 days to go. As the song finishes: “ Don't scab for the bosses, / Don't listen to their lies. / Us poor folks haven't got a chance / Unless we organize.” Which side are you on? Call 920.230.6432 to volunteer.

  • 2015-2016 Wisconsin Blue Book: Chapter 8
    STATISTICS: HISTORY 675 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.
