I saw a lot of the Wisconsin Democrats wearing orange t-shirts

Is that becoming an official color for solidarity? Would it be helpful if people started wearing orange around the nation in solidairty, or would anyone even notice? :shrug: I want to help but have no money, but I could dig up an orange ribbon or maybe even a shirt of some sort or another.

1. No it's just the color of the Assemblymen's t-shirts

The dominant color at the protests has been Badger Red.

3. Origin of orange as color of non-violent protest in Ukraine.

I've been looking for a color to settle on for a unifying symbol of support for Wisconsin protests. I like this one. There are others people have been wearing - Badger Red, AFSME green, red/white/blue. Orange could encompass all the themes. Anyone agree?
