It appears that one of the 14 fugitive Wisconsin Democrats has returned to the state capitol, heeding Governor Scott Walker’s ultimatum.
A flurry of Twitter messages late Tuesday night heralded the return of Democrat State Senator Tim Cullen, who represents labor union interests in the 15th Senate District surrounding Janesville, Wisconsin.

I imagine they would be, once they found out the teachers averaged close to a six-figure compensation package, and THAT wasn't enough for them even though the State's going tits-up.

I saw on WGN that some of them were staying at a hotel in Grayslake, IL, which is relatively close to the Illinois/Wisconsin border. Kinda wondered why Gov. Walker didn't send some troopers to pick the losers up.

The troopers have no authority outside Wisconsin, as long as the Dems stayed on the IL side of the line, the troopers could not do anything about it.

I am from Janesville, WI. There was a GM plant there that was shut down a few years ago. Of course, all unionized.
But when I talk to family & friends, they stand up for these public employees. ::)
Not sure why they are upset with the public unions. All they want is their money that they are ENTITLED to. ::)
Sorry, just quoting what family & friends have told me. lol

There's also that little problem of ya can't arrest somebody for not doin' their job. In most cases you can fire them, but the only way to fire these slackers is in the voting booth!
catch 22!

Just heard on my local News/Talk station that they WILL be fined $100 bucks a day everyday they are gone for hiding out in Illinoise. Not enough in my opinion, but it's a start.

Gee, I wonder if the mommy & daddy's of those senators will pay the fines for them.

Chances are, either the taxpayers will end up footin' the bill, or they will take it out of their "campaign", ( ie, bribes ), contributions from the unions!
