67% Disapprove of Legislators Fleeing Wisconsin to Avoid Vote

Half of America’s voters favor public sector unions for government workers, but they strongly oppose the tactic by Wisconsin state senators to flee their state to prevent a vote that would limit the rights of such unions.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that only 25% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of this tactic, while 67% disapprove. State legislators in Indiana have used the same approach to avoid a vote in their state. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Sizable majorities of Republicans and voters not affiliated with either major party reject such a strategy. Democrats are fairly evenly divided, with 48% approving and 44% disapproving.

Until the Democratic senators return, there will not be quorum allowing a vote on Republican Governor Scott Walker's proposal to have public employees pay more for their health and pension benefits and to limit their collective bargaining rights. The Republican majorities in both chambers of the Wisconsin legislature are expected to pass the governor's proposal which has been the subject of major protests in the state for several days now.

Voters continue to be closely divided over the question of public employee unions themselves. Fifty percent (50%) at least somewhat favor such unions, while 44% oppose them. These figures include 25% who Strongly Favor the unions and 25% who are Strongly Opposed.

When are you going to grow a brain?

Calling Governor Walker a Middle East Dictator, that is all you guys on the left have to go on? Calling him something he isn't? The only politicians doing the fleeing, are your fellow Democrats. Notice how they ran away like children instead of doing their jobs.

No matter what ones position is on the issue, you can't dismiss our laws and our procedures in governing.

It's a dangerous game if allowed, I don't care who's doing it.

What has happened is lots of Americans from other states have moved here and the services now that they want are like those in Ca or Il, not going to happen, Texas will have a balanced budget and no tax increase, not asking for a federal bailout, time to cut the fat and more from the Texas budget and it will hurt some but all need to take there lumps not just the private sector:dance:

Like the 49 other states did not take the stimilus money, what it did was kick the decision down the road two years, guess what that is now as the stimilus is gone and decision time is now.

The Trans Texas Corridor was tubed as the voters did not want it, different than Obamacare, voters did not want this passed and it was, I give Perry credit, he backed off his vision of this Trans Texas Corridor as we did not want it.:hi:

Now we know that 67% claim is BS :D
