Open Letter to Wisconsin Dem Senators

Dear Wisconsin Democrat senators,

Get back to Madison and go to work!

You plan to be on the lam for days or weeks.

Democrats who fled Wisconsin to block a vote on a sweeping anti-union bill could stay in hiding for days or even weeks.

Democratic state Sen. Jon Erpenbach (URP'-ehn-bahk) spoke to The Associated Press at a Chicago hotel on Friday. He and fellow Democratic senators left Wisconsin on Thursday to delay the near-certain passage of a bill backed by Republicans and GOP Gov. Scott Walker.

Thousands of protesters have also flocked to the Capitol in Madison, Wis., to demonstrate against the bill.

Erpenbach says there's no fixed date for Democrats to return to Wisconsin. He say all 14 Senate Democrats will meet somewhere in Illinois on Friday. He would not say where or exactly when.

By refusing to do your job in Madison and failing to uphold your duties as an elected official, you are, in effect, overturning the results of the November 2010 election. You are obstructing the will of the people. That is not democracy.

If you don't do what I, a Wisconsin taxpayer, am paying you to do, I vow to work to have you fired via recall elections.

Do your job!

Quit running and hiding and appearing on MSNBC!

DO YOUR JOB!

Sincerely MAD as hell,

Mary
Wisconsin taxpayer
