Wisconsin Assembly Moves Toward Vote On Right-to-work Bill

(AP) — Republicans in the Wisconsin Assembly edged closer to making their state the 25th to pass a right-to-work law, moving within hours of a Friday morning deadline to vote on the union restrictions after enduring a night of speeches by Democrats opposing the measure. [...] stinging from Walker's signature 2011 law that stripped most public workers of nearly all their union rights, Democrats railed against the bill for more than 17 hours. Most of the Republicans had long left the chamber; only about 15 were left on the floor as of 6:30 a.m.
