Wisconsin Prosecutor Challenges Anti-Worker Bill 
-------------------------------------------------



A Wisconsin prosecutor has filed a lawsuit challenging the recently
approved Republican-backed law that strips the collective bargaining
rights of most public sector employees. The suit from Dane County
Prosecutor Ismael Ozanne accuses Republicans of violating the state's
open meeting laws in pushing the bill through the state legislature.
Ozanne is the second Wisconsin public official to file a legal challenge
over the anti-union legislation.
