Oregon Democratic Governor sends police to bring back Republicans who left state over climate bill

Oregon Democratic Gov. Kate Brown on Thursday authorized state police to locate Senate Republicans and bring them back to the state Capitol after some left the state to block the chamber's proceedings.

After more than eight hours of fruitless negotiations late into Wednesday night, Republican state senators in Oregon walked out of a session on Thursday over disagreements on HB 2020, a cap and trade climate bill. All 11 GOP senators failed to appear later Thursday for floor proceedings, leaving the legislative body two senators short of a quorum, according to Kate Kondayen, a spokeswoman for Brown.

At least some of the senators have left the state, according to a statement from the Oregon Senate Republicans, and the wife of one of them says they are all in Idaho at an undisclosed location.

Are these people paid by the taxpayers of Oregon to work?

So if they abandon their jobs and don’t show up shouldn’t there be some repercussion?

I know that if I failed to show up for work I would get fired.

Maybe getting arrested is extreme... but I think if a representative fails to show up for work they should be fired and replaced.
