Dems Plan Saturday Counter Rally

Democrats will hold a counter rally Saturday at Houdini Plaza, a couple blocks up College Avenue from the Republican festivities at the Radisson Paper Valley Hotel. The rally begins at 10 a.m.

Speakers at the event will include 8th CD candidates Nancy Nusbaum, Jamie Wall and Steve Kagen, and Kaukauna state Rep. Tom Nelson.

According to state Dem spokeswoman Jessica Erickson, the rally will highlight the major difference between Democrats and Republicans on stem cell research, "especially the governor's record of promoting stem cell research versus Mark Green's record of doing everything he can to restrict stem cell research."
