Wisconsin Dems Go To Plan C

First concerning the transit budget, you spent too much, cut back and live with in your means. 




Second, seems Penny Scaber tipped her hand a little too soon.

Appleton lawmaker Penny Bernard Schaber seeks key exemption in budget plan for transit workers | postcrescent.com | Appleton Post Crescent

"Without changes, Walker's plan would result in the state losing $46.6 million in transit aid. Valley Transit, which runs the Fox Cities' public bus system, would lose $2.5 million out of its $8.5 million budget.

Bernard Schaber is introducing the amendment with state Rep. Tamara Grigsby, D-Milwaukee. It's one of about 100 amendments Democrats are proposing to the repair bill. Debate on the bill is expected to start in the state Assembly today."

Since when did democrats ever have over a 100 amendments at one time? It will take months to go through 20 or 30. I can see them, an amendment  to give workers a potty break every two hours. An amendment to have government only buy Kit Kats and not Snickers bars, an amendment that state workers wear red ribbons every second Tuesday of the month.  An amendment to recognize Jim Doyle and the last Wisconsin legislature as hero's of the state unions. What a bunch of crap


It just a stall tactic! Can you hear them when Fitzgerald gives them two minutes of discussion per amendment,  Schaber will say "it is a travesty of democracy, give us our time to speak!" Penny, it's a crock. Good try!
