MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Next month will be 10 years since demonstrators stayed at Wisconsin’s state capitol for weeks to protest against Governor Scott Walker’s Budget Repair Bill.
Some people are suggesting Wednesday’s protest in Washington D.C. is similar to that one.
As the day’s events were unfolding on Capitol Hill, Republican State Rep. Jim Steineke of Kaukauna tells FOX 11 it was a familiar sight.
“It reminds me a lot of the actions that liberals in Wisconsin took back in 2011 when they stormed the capitol back then,” said Steineke, Assembly Majority Leader. “They took it over. It was despicable back then. It’s despicable now.”
