I’m curious about the second comment under the article. It references the Illinois Senate’s use of subs to replace absent Congressmen to pass their huge tax hike. I’m not sure what the commenter is saying. Did Illinois Republicans run and hide like the WI Democrats?
Whomever that poster is, is wrong. The RATS have an overwhelming Majority in Both IL Houses to basically pass anything. It's only fear of losing their phony baloney jobs that keeps them in check.
So no IL Republicans went and hid, or used substitutes. That HUGH tax hike we're stuck in IL with passed (cough) 'legally'.
