Sweet: Illinois Republican wants fugitive Wisconsin Dems to pay state income tax « Hot Air

Democrats control both chambers of the Illinois legislature and the governorship, natch, so this is going nowhere. But with the public already annoyed at fleebaggers, every PR stunt that rubs a little extra salt in the wound helps. Especially one that accuses them of being freeloaders in the midst of a debate about state workers not pulling their fair share of the public load.

A Republican lawmaker from Illinois introduced legislation Thursday that would subject Wisconsin senators who crossed the border to Illinois income taxes for their time working in “the Land of Lincoln.”

Illinois Rep. Mike Tryon, of Crystal Lake, said the Wisconsin lawmakers should be subject to the Illinois tax in the same way Green Bay Packers players must pay Illinois tax for games played at Soldier Field…

Tryon said he opposed a 2007 bill that extended the 5% Illinois tax to temporary workers — including professional athletes and movie stars. But if it’s on the books, the Wisconsin senators should pay, Tryon said.
