this is a fox news alert on a
new showdown in wisconsin that
is starting to get national
attention.
small business owners are
accusing big labor of using
bully tactics to drum up
support and some of the mom and
pop stores are fighting back.
welcome to "america live."
i'm megyn kelly.
a growing number of smalltown
wisconsin residents complaining
about strong-arm tactics --
their term -- from the powerful
unions.
they were told to hang this
sign in their store windows or
else suffer boycotts by
organized labor.
it's not okay, according to the
labor unions, for the
businesses to remain neutral.
it stems from the epic battle
over limiting union power as a
way to reign in state budgets.
