It passed It Passed!
The Dems would have walked out but GOP Stopped Debate and took the vote, Quick and sweet, dems couldn't get out so they YELLED “Shame Shame Shame” over!
We Won! The first huddle!

Walker looks so modest, doesn’t he.
He ought to — the hand of God is on this.
If the bill passed is the one Krauthammer encouraged the WI GOP to pass, it *is* a bill limiting collective bargaining.
*fingers crossed*
BTTT
It still has to pass the senate. They don’t have a quorum as long as the 14 are hiding out.
With the bill passing the Assembly, does that now mean that the collective bargaining component cannot be separated out as a separate, non-budgetary bill?
The unions had/maybe have their place but they sure did grow out of their britches, good to see them on a diet...
It's a budget bill and the senate needs a quorum.
Obama, The “Won” in charge when communism died.
Right.
Though the announcement was pitched as a deal, state Democrats said Republicans were unilaterally bringing the debate to a close. One aide in Minority Leader Peter Barca's office said Republicans gave the Democrats two options: debate 38 additional amendments or end debate immediately. "We will strongly make our points, but understand you are limiting the voice of the public as you do this," said Democratic state Rep. Mark Pocan of Madison. "You can't dictate democracy. You are limiting the people's voice with this agreement this morning."
Nice work WI GOP.
So what happens, the rats don’t show up the government shuts down?
Dems yelling shame, shame, shame, over and over, while Elvis(GOP) left the building!
Huh? What do you mean it’s non-budget?
When the last Dem speaker finished prattling on about how many nurses and firefighters and policemen (who won’t be affected by this bill) this was going to hurt, the Speaker called for the vote, said the ayes have it, the bill is passed. Took less than 20 seconds! I felt a tingle go up my leg! LOL
I cannot believe they allow those idiots to literally sleep in the Capitol rotunda like that. I'm all for free speech and peaceful assembly and all, but c'mon already...
No boltibuster for you guys.
my bad, it seems it is budget
It’s a heck of a good start!
How did it suddenly become a non0budget bill? Walker’s bill is a budget bill.
