Wisconsin Judge Overturns Key Provisions of Act 10, Restores Union Rights

A Dane County judge has overturned Wisconsin's Act 10, a 2011 law that restricted collective bargaining for most public employees, citing constitutional violations. The ruling, which challenges the division of public employees into "general" and "public safety" categories, has sparked reactions from both supporters and critics, including former Governor Scott Walker. The decision is expected to face appeals, as it could significantly impact public employee unions and state budget policies.
