Republicans members of the Wisconsin State Senate found a way on Wednesday to pass a bill limiting bargaining rights for most state workers and specifically removing that right for university faculty and staff members. Democratic senators have been absent from the state for three weeks in an attempt to block the bill. But Republicans stripped the elements of the bill that required spending authority so that a vote could take place without a full quorum present, The New York Times reported. The bill now returns to the state Assembly, which is expected to pass it.
