Politics blog: Risser says 14 Dem senators have 'no intent to come back today'

Sen. Fred Risser, D-Madison, said Friday that he was shocked by Walker's proposal. He said the governor seems to be "union-busting" and is coming across "more like a dictator and less like a leader." M.P. KING – State Journal

Sen. Fred Risser, D-Madison, said Friday morning that he knows of "no intent to come back today" among the 14 Democratic senators in hiding in Illinois.

Risser said the senators, who fled last week in an attempt to stop Gov. Scott Walker's controversial budget repair bill from passing, will be meeting later Friday morning.

But he said they have no plans to return in the near future, even after the Assembly passed the bill in the early morning after a heated floor session.
