On March 11, 2011, Walker signed Act 10 into law.
Act 10 at its most basic limits collective bargaining for public sector labor unions, including wage increases. Since Act 10 became state law, public sector unions may no longer include health insurance costs, extra salary requests, or broader benefit packages in their contracts. As well, Act 10 limits raises to the consumer price index.
Act 10 supporters say those changes benefited the state and local governments by saving almost $14 billion over the past 10 years.
In the decade since Act 10âs adoption into state law, Republicans and those in the Walker Administration assert the former governor and Act 10 have been proven right.
