Cant make this up. Fleeing the capitol to avoid a vote. Governor sends state police after them
Oregon Gov.

The minority GOP caucus wants the plan to be sent to voters instead of being instituted by lawmakers — but negotiations with Democrats collapsed, leading to the headline-grabbing walkout.
How about just vote "no."
