He needs to go Reagan on the lot of them.

Get on tv and explain that since it has been over ‘x’ amount of time since people have left their jobs, he is now considering the positions to be vacant.

Unless they come back within 24 hours, the positions will be filled by competent workers. Period. Then put a call out for teachers and start the process to replace the legislators.

They’ll be back in a NY minute.

I think he needs to add a little reverse psychology for the childish senators. Spread a rumor that in addition to giving them 24 hours or else, he is instructing law enforcement to prevent them from coming back!!

You know how little kids can be!

After he announces that the positions are vacant, by the State Constitution, he can call for elections to fill the vacancies.
And I wonder how those people who are in the derelict democrats’s districts feel about them right now?

Better yet. Say since the PUBLIC school system has failed the people of the state and it’s our duty to educate all the children of the state...we are now authorizing vouchers for kids impacted by the public union teacher work stoppage. If your child has been impacted and would like to go to private school please pick up your voucher today.

Maybe they wouldn’t be back in a NY minute, or a Wisconsin minute....1. It would make them look like the pusillanimous pipsqueaks they are, and 2.they could very well be prodded by their union leaders (for implications of #1)into going ahead and taking this thing to its logical conclusions: the whole idea of ‘scabs’ plays very well, and clasically, into the 1930s mindset these unions are *still* operating under: the difference THIS TIME, and it will be obvious to more and more as time goes on, is that they are no longer the exploited workers of evil corporate interest, but are instead a hardcore minority exploiting US, the American taxpayer, who largely foots the bill for them. Considering how small their numbers actually are, compared to ours, should highlight the magnitude of the benefits they enjoy, at our expense.

I thought somebody last week had posted that their BIL(?) was working with Walker’s people to see what the legal options are regarding calling the seats vacant, and last Thursday was the tipping point. After last Thursday the seats would have been vacant long enough that the governor could declare them vacant and begin the process of an election to replace them.

Am I remembering right?

“He needs to go Reagan on the lot of them.”

Indeed.

The state doesn’t hire or fire teachers. Keep it real they are hired by local school boards. That is where the next action should occur if people are serious about replacing the teachers.

You do realize in the real world of WI law he can’t do such a thing. These fools were elected just like he was. The voters will have to get rid of them.
