Last week, Dane County Circuit Court Judge Jacob frost struck down more than 60 sections of Act 10–the 2011 Wisconsin law that severely limits public employee unions. However, the implications of this ruling are complex, and it has already been appealed, making it too early for public employee unions to celebrate.

On today’s show, Douglas Haynes speaks with two guests about what the potential end of Act 10 could mean for public sector workers unions in Wisconsin and public services in the state. First he speaks with Jon Shelton, Vice President of Higher Education of the American Federation of Teachers-Wisconsin, about what the ruling means for public worker unions. Then, Bryna Godar, staff attorney with the state democracy Research Initiative at the UW Madison law school, joins the show to talk about the legal basis of the ruling and future appeals to it.
