On the heels of Maryland's legislature overriding a governor's veto to force Wal-Mart to pay it's fair share for health care under the Fair Share Health Care act, Wisconsin's legislature has held a hearing on the bill. The state AFL-CIO testified in support of the bill as did the UFCW, Citizen Action and other groups. This is part of an effort in 31 states to get Wal-Mart to provide more money for its workers health care. Wisconsin's has a Democratic governor but it's legislature is Republican controlled, making it harder to get the law passed
