ABOUT WMC
What is the Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce? What is its history? Who are its members? How does its influence hurt your ability to work, live and raise a family in the state of Wisconsin?
The rise in the influence of corporate lobbying and spending organizations such as Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce shifted the priorities of state and federal government towards serving corporations at the expense of citizens.
The financial community has been utterly deregulated; liability and accountability rules protecting working people, the public and our natural resources have been obliterated; enhancing executive compensation, shareholder profits and transferring government resources from the middle class and the poor to the wealthiest and their corporations has become the moral compass guiding economic policy.
The result has been the collapse of the American economy.
And that’s not enough for WMC and it allies, which continues to push these same failed policies. Understanding more about the vast components which comprise the WMC operation sheds insight on its reach and its influence.
