More pettiness from the Wisconsin Republicans:
the Senate has passed a resolution fining members who are absent without leave for two or more session days, at a rate of $100 per day of absence. AWOL members would also be required to "Reimburse to the senate the actual costs incurred in compelling the attendance of the member."These are the same guys who previously restricted Democratic staffers' access to the Capitol copiers and cut off direct deposit of paychecks for the Democratic Senators.
I know I said earlier that Republicans are like little children. Scratch that. I know little children who are less childish than this bunch.

Posted by: Karan at March 4, 2011 02:45 PMIt's only financial bills that require a quorum.
