- What Teachers Want: New studies show that many teachers are unhappy in their jobs—and in this climate of austerity, it’s no wonder.

- Will People Power Defeat Scott Walker and His Cronies? The protests in Wisconsin have inspired a new generation of candidates—and they’re winning.
- New Rules Mean New Hardship for Poultry Workers: The USDA proposes to increase line speed in poultry plants, but the debate is only about food safety. What about the workers?
