U.S. District Judge William Conley upheld most of the reforms enacted under Governor Scott Walker in 2011. The thug operations that filed the suit to strike the law down include councils of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO, the American Federation of Teachers, the Wisconsin Education Association Council, the Wisconsin State Employees Union and the Service Employees International Union-Health Care Wisconsin.

He did overturn two provisions that would have loosened the grip that the thug unions have over these public employees. The story was filed this morning by the AP and contains their normal thug/Shariah friendly bias.
