Large numbers of Michigan State Police officers were around the Capitol building early this morning as Lansing braced for a day of protests related to controversial right-to-work legislation working its way through the state Legislature.This one is going to be interesting. If right-to-work passes in Michigan, and it certainly appears that it will, you're going to see some nasty stuff. If you thought the protests that roiled Wisconsin in 2011 were impressive, the show we're about to see in Michigan will dwarf that.
Today’s protests are a precursor to much larger ones planned for Tuesday, when thousands of union activists are expected to converge at the Capitol and supporters of right-to-work legislation have also promised a strong presence there. Union members took civil disobedience training in Detroit on Saturday to prepare for the protests.
