That was going to be my question.

Of COURSE someone who lives outside of their district can say they are not following their oath of office.

Nope, they want to benefit from the fruits of other people's labor. Searching the internet is no exception to the rule.

WTMJ reported:
The 14 Wisconsin state Senate Democrats who left the state two weeks ago will now face fines of $100 for each day they miss, if they miss two or more days.
Republicans remaining in the Senate approved the daily fine on Wednesday morning with none of the Democrats present.
The Democrats left Wisconsin in order to delay indefinitely a Republican-backed bill taking away collective bargaining rights from public employees.
The resolution passed on Wednesday also requires the missing Democrats to reimburse the Senate for any costs incurred during attempts to force them to return. Their salary and other per diem payments can be withheld until they pay back the penalties and costs.
LOL, $100 a day. Get real. So they can disappear and still make money every day. How much they make per day? $500 to $1000? So they still need $400 a day for not showing up to work.

Great for hooking your buddies up. Love our politicians

heh blatant hypocrisy, you are right. I was just wondering what the origin was.. and I looked it up. Looks like they're misspelling it.The Big Apple: Fleabagger (flea + teabagger)

“Fleabagger” should not be confused with “fleebagger”—a politician who flees a state to prevent a quorum.
