Wisconsin Republican state representative Steve Nass has killed the Fair Share Health Care bill , just days after Wisconsin Democratic Governor Jim Doyle called on the legislature to pass the bill. Doyle wants the GOP-controlled legislature to outlaw the practice of health care dumping, saying it's unfair and unethical, and ought to be illegal. Workers Independent News asked Nass whose side he's on.

WIN: Why take Wal-Mart's side at the expense of workers and taxpayers?

[Steve Nass] : "Well again isn't simply Wal-Mart's side, it is a business side. Because there is a question on the legal ramifications of this when you just selectively target a particular industry."

Wisconsin AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Phil Neuenfeldt says a groundswell of public support to make Wal-Mart pay its fair share of health care costs instead of dumping them onto states could overcome resistance by Republicans.

[Phil Neuenfeldt] : "If there's enough outcry from people and enough pressure, it can start to develop a life of its own. The more this situation gets out there and the more people talk about it and get the facts the more rage there is. And I think that more pressure is being put on."
