Weather drives protesters indoors Sunday; rallies expected nationwide Monday

Opponents of Gov. Scott Walker's plan to curtail collective bargaining among public employees continued their seventh day of protests Sunday, though organizers moved the rally inside the Capitol due to a winter storm. Monday could be the biggest protest day yet. As a furlough day for state workers, union organizers are planning to bring in protesters by bus from across the state. Rallies are scheduled at the Capitol for noon and 5 p.m. A Rock for Your Rights concert, featuring former Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello, is expected to start on Capitol Square at 5 p.m. (WISCONSIN STATE JOURNAL, 2/21)
