Council Agendas and Others that Popped Up Yesterday
So annoying, why call it a weekly schedule, it should be the "kinda sorta maybe the weekly schedule".
Occupy Extension Tonight?
The City Council will be voting on a resolution tonight, and the County Board will vote on a similar one later, temporarily extending the time for Occupy/homeless tent ciy and looking for better solutions for the homeless camping there.
Congratulations Connie Deer!

Answering Bridget’s Question
Why can't homeless get services?
So, What Does the Council Want to Do About Homelessness?
Here's the council discussion after some very moving testimony about Occupy Madison and what it means for homeless individuals living there, about what it is like to be homeless and about how the homeless services in this town may not work for everyone who is homeless.
Occupy Madison Voices
Powerful. Listen to what they have to say. You may be surprised. I think the Council was. At least, it got their attention for a change.
Why Doesn’t the City Hire Women in Leadership?
People of Color and People with Disabilities get hired - wages not so great. Women, not so good - in both getting hired and wages.
