Bob Dreps, a lawyer who handles open government cases, said voting before the scheduled start time for a legislative session "certainly violates" State law.The vote was then rescinded, and as Dreps says, rescinding it moots any court challenge, but that doesn't make the voting any less illegal.
Meanwhile those same Republicans and their leader, Scott Walker, are busy excoriating Senate Democrats for avoiding a vote in that other chamber. Yet are those Democrats doing anything illegal?
No. Only the Republicans broke the law.
