Wis. Assembly Near Chaos Over Union Bill

Republican Assembly leaders called members to the chamber in Madison Friday for a 5 p.m. vote on the bill to repeal public employee bargaining rights but began voting before Democrats arrived, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported. As they entered the Assembly chamber, Democrats called the vote illegal and demanded the majority Republicans rescind it.
