Republican’s #TownHall Blows Up in His Face as He’s Showered in Boos

by Robert McCoy
Fri, August 1, 2025

"#BryanSteil entered the Elkhorn High School auditorium on Thursday to resounding boos, and faced a raucous crowd for the duration of the 80-minute session, including fierce questions on his support of Trump’s agenda, as well as frequent interruptions, chants, and jeering.

"Attendees were evidently fired up over Steil’s support of Trump’s budget, poised to tilt taxes in favor of the #rich while tattering the #SocialSafetyNet. Steil defended his vote on the bill, which is also estimated to balloon the national debt by trillions of dollars. (When the lawmaker mentioned national debt as a pressing issue, one attendee interjected: 'Thanks to you!')

"He also voiced his support of Trump’s controversial immigration policies—a topic which elicited 'some of the loudest boos,' according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

"More than one person in attendance referred to the Florida immigrant detention camp callously dubbed '#AlligatorAlcatraz' as a #ConcentrationCamp, which Steil objected to. A constituent noted that 'the difference between a #prison or a #DetentionCenter and a concentration camp is #DueProcess.'

"Steil also had to address Trump’s tariffs (which one attendee called 'a terrible tax that’s going to be placed on the citizens of the United States'), as well as Trump’s push to all but abolish the Department of Education ('Education is best resolved at the local level,' Steil said).

"Many questions Steil faced reflected a widespread perception that Steil is in Trump’s pocket. One attendee said, 'Southeast #Wisconsin has not been represented by you. President Trump seems to run Southeast Wisconsin through you.'

"Another made similar remarks in the context of immigration. 'What I see happening to our #Immigrant population embarrasses me—horrifies me,' she said.
You have not raised a voice to complain about it. Where do I see your leadership? I see no leadership—I see you following Trump 100 percent of the time.' In response to this latter question, Steil, ironically, 'lauded Trump’s executive orders and #deportations,' Wisconsin #PublicRadio reports."

Protesters deliver coffin to GOP congressman’s front door in mock funeral procession, wild video shows

July 31, 2025

"More than two dozen protesters were captured on video last week delivering a faux coffin and flowers to the Wisconsin home of House Administration Committee Chairman #BryanSteil, R-#Wisconsin.

"The unwanted visitors, dressed in black and carrying cowbells, walked up the congressman’s private driveway in what appeared to be a mock funeral procession, before dropping a cardboard coffin prop with an epitaph at his front door.

"Former Walworth County Democrat Party Chairwoman Ellen Holly was identified in the video footage posted to social media allegedly walking up to Steil’s front door, along with several other constituents from previous protests.

"Prior to the '#DeathOfDemocracy' funeral procession, sponsored by the Southern Wisconsin Grassroots Network and Working Families Party, an organizer could be heard on a Facebook Live video saying, 'We’re not going to hang out here because we’re not going to invite the police to come and ask questions, and say, ‘What are you doing here, blah, blah, blah.’ We’re just going to get out of town.'

"Following the demonstration, protesters could be seen walking across Steil’s front yard, forgoing the sidewalk, and commenting on photo opportunities in front of the home.

"A photo of the coffin and epitaph at the front door was later posted to Facebook by another group involved. One commentator asked for the lawmaker’s home address.

"This incident has been reported to U.S. Capitol Police (#USCP). It is unclear if any of the #protesters are facing criminal charges.

" 'It’s disappointing that Democrat leadership and the radical left resort to these type of tactics,' Steil told Fox News Digital. 'I remain committed to my work to get this country back on track and will not be deterred by their threats.'

"Ravi Mangla, National Press Secretary for #WorkingFamiliesPower, told Fox News Digital the incident was less concerning than Steil’s policies."

#Florida considers easing #ChildLabor laws after pushing out #immigrants

A new law under consideration in the state Legislature would roll back child labor laws to make up for a dwindling labor pool.

"As Florida officials enable Trump’s #MassDeportation policies, lawmakers in the state are looking to children to take on some of the jobs that have typically been done by immigrants.

"Making its way through the state Senate is a new law, Senate Bill 918, that aims to loosen child labor laws and allow teenagers to work overnight shifts.

"As CNN reported: 'The state’s legislature on Tuesday advanced a bill that would loosen child labor laws, allowing children as young as 14 years old to work overnight shifts. If the new law is passed, teenagers would be able to work overnight jobs on school days. They are currently prevented from working earlier than 6:30 am or later than 11 pm per state law.'

"#SB918 also 'includes a number of changes including eliminating working time restrictions on teenagers aged 14 and 15 if they are home-schooled and ending guaranteed meal breaks for 16 and 17 year olds,' CNN reported.

"Florida Gov. #RonDeSantis backs the law and has defended the idea of teenagers and college students working these jobs. DeSantis also explicitly linked the effort to the loss of immigrant labor. Speaking about the consequences of state verification laws at an event with border czar #TomHoman, the governor said, 'Yes, we had people that left because of those rules, but you’ve also been able to hire other people. And what’s wrong with expecting our young people to be working part-time now?'

"In recent years, several states — many of them led by #Republican governors — have rolled back child labor laws. This map from the Economic Policy Institute illustrates the spike in states rolling back these laws from 2021 to 2024. Back in 2023, for example, #Arkansas Gov. #SarahHuckabeeSanders signed a bill that made it easier for companies to hire children without getting consent from their parents. One month earlier, The New York Times published a bombshell report about the exploitation of immigrant children in #factories operated by some of the most well-known companies in the U.S.

"That story should have spurred a nationwide push to strengthen child labor laws. Instead, states like Florida are going in the opposite direction, weakening such laws in part to deal with the fallout from the conservative movement’s demonization of immigrants. They’re essentially using child labor to paper over the gaps left by their draconian immigration policies.

"#Project2025, the far-right playbook for Trump’s second term, specifically calls for rolling back #HazardRegulations around child labor. The text claims, 'Some young adults show an interest in inherently dangerous jobs' and argues that 'with parental consent and proper training, certain young adults should be allowed to learn and work in more dangerous occupations.'

"Even as child labor laws are being rolled back, the Trump administration is working to gut social services, including funds that help provide school lunches to children and programs, like the supplemental nutrition assistance program, that help feed poor families. And if those cuts stay in place, they may leave American families with few alternatives to sending their children to work to keep food on the table."
