People upset over Gov. Scott Walker's (R-Wis.) proposed state budget cuts are taking it personally — and are making it personal.
More than 100 protesters rallied right up to Walker's home in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, Wauwatosa Now reports, chanting, "Hey hey, ho ho, Scott Walker's got to go," "The students united will never be defeated," and "Students are not for sale."
Jennifer Epps-Addison, Director of Wisconsin Jobs Now, said of the protest, "[Gov. Walker] brought budget cuts to all our houses, and today we brought it to his."
