Wis. AG Appeals Union Ruling, Asks for Stay

Everybody is still confused about whether or not collective bargaining is back in the mix

|


Wisconsin's attorney general on Tuesday appealed a court ruling repealing major parts of Gov. Scott Walker's law effectively ending collective bargaining for most public workers.

J.B. Van Hollen also asked a judge to place his ruling on hold while the appeal is pending.

Van Hollen's request just four days after the ruling Friday comes as school districts and local governments attempt to understand the ramifications of the decision and whether it opens the door to new negotiations previously barred with unions.
