Gov. Scott Walker (R) has another friend in his fight over union rights - Republican governor of South Carolina, Nikki Haley.
On Fox and Friends Wednesday morning, the South Carolina governor spoke about her continued fight against the health reform bill, and was then asked by co-host Gretchen Carlson for her thoughts about events talking place in Madison.
Suffice it to say, Haley clearly had Walker’s back.
“I absolutely applaud Governor Walker,” she said. “I talked to him last week, he’s holding strong. I told him to fight the good fight. ”
“The private sector has sacrificed for a long time,” she said. “We can’t exempt government employees from doing part of their sacrifice as well. And so I think he’s standing strong because he realizes these are times for tough decisions.”
