But if anything has defined Mr. Walker’s political life over the past
decade, it was his drive to limit unions just six weeks into his
tenure as governor in 2011, a move foretold in his years as Milwaukee
County executive. Although Mr. Walker had made it clear as a candidate
for governor that unions could expect to see change, his critics say
he never made clear the extent of his intentions until he was elected.

But as county executive, he also clashed with public-sector unions,
calling for 35-hour workweeks instead of 40, with corresponding
reductions in compensation.
