Actually they have been called to the floor and HAVE to show up. Not showing up is NOT an option. They ran to IL so the Wisconsin State Patrol has no authority to escort them back to work. The funny thing is, for the past 8 years the Democrats have had the majority and the Republican minority never threatened to leave the state to stop a vote for taking place.
And the Madison school district closed the schools because 40% of the teachers called in sick. . . .that's a LOT of subs and most don't have that sort of sub list. If the teachers called in the day/night prior it is easy for the district to make a decision and let the parents know. That sort of system is already in place for snow days. That still does not make it in the best interest of the students for schools to close down like this.
