Pelosi Says She's 'Proud' Of Wisconsin Democrats Who Fled State

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said she supports the Democratic state senators in Wisconsin who left the state to stop a vote on curbing collective bargaining rights for unionized public employees.

After earlier voicing solidarity with the workers protesting against Gov. Scott Walker (R) in Wisconsin, Pelosi told The Hill she also stands behind the state legislators who fled and are now reportedly being sought by police.

“I saw some of them speak on TV, and they were very proud of the action that they took. I’m very proud of what they are doing,” she said.

Our elected officials are paid to and are supposed to take care of governmental business. They are supposed to vote when an issue comes up.....NOT to use trickery and run and hide.

Good! Now, vote in 2012 and get rid of the rest that won't do their jobs. Stop letting THEM control you.
