A Wisconsin appeals court has overturned a ruling that struck down the controversial 2011 Act 10 law, which stripped most public workers of collective bargaining rights — a move that’s kept the state in the national spotlight for over a decade. Supporters say it saves taxpayer money, while opponents argue it devastates workers’ ability to negotiate pay and conditions. The law, championed by then-Governor Scott Walker, now stands again after the court found its provisions — including exemptions for public safety workers — constitutional. Unions plan to appeal, likely sending the case to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, which now leans liberal. For now, Act 10 remains in effect, fueling ongoing tensions over union power and public sector labor rights in Wisconsin.
