Republican Senators in Oregon walked out of the State Capitol on Monday to prevent a vote on a bill aimed at stemming climate change, a similar action taken by GOP lawmakers last year that was followed by threats of having the state police forcibly returning them.

 

The walkout prompted Democratic Gov. Kate Brown to accuse the Republican lawmakers of โ€œbeing against the Democratic process.โ€ Democrats maintain a majority in both chambers of the state Legislative Assembly.

 

โ€œIf they donโ€™t like a bill, then they need to show up and change it or show up and vote no. They should make their voices heard rather than shut down state government,โ€ she said at a news conference

there are enough dems to force thru any vote so voting no is meaningless
