I heard they may have state credit cards that can be cut off.

I hope so. Because you know the Dems have been charging this entire romp to the State of Wisconsin.

at the very least, they should not be allowed to claim expenses used on the card during this fiasco.

I really would like to know why that isn't Fraud, Waste and abuse ? !

They have debit cards which cannot be used for hotels or food (the cards are coded to refuse such charges.)

They also have State Travel Cards, which are billed to them personally, i.e., they are responsible for paying the charges. The cards are usually issued with a $2000 limit, but they could be higher for elected officials.

In order to get the reimbursement to pay off a travel card, they must fill out a Travel Expense Report, which must be OK’d by a supervisor and must be approved by the Travel Dept as bonafide state travel expenses.

We shall see what happens.

Withold their pay checks, cut off their state credit cards, then monitor the situation closely to see who picks up the tab for this little junket they're on. Follow the money.

They could cut off their credit cards, their phones, and per deim pay. What I predict they will do is wimp out.

They could be voting on a whole host of things that don’t require the presence of their AWOL buddies.

The fact they haven’t, says an awful lot.

Democrats when in the majority, do everything in their power to ram through their agenda, when they lose power they always want a dialogue, to find common ground. Sad thing is it seems to work every time.
