ANNOUNCER: Mary Burke. Today, 930 people work at Trek, the great Wisconsin company she helped build. And when she was commerce secretary, there were 72,000 more jobs than today. So why is Scott Walker's RGA spending a million dollars attacking her? Under Walker, unemployment's up, job prospects are down to 45th in the nation and layoffs continue. There's a better way. A strong economy starts with a strong middle class, and that's what Mary Burke's working on every day.
