Republicans in the Wisconsin Senate on Wednesday side-stepped a boycott by opposition Democrats and approved curbs on union powers in a case closely watched by Americans as a test of labor rights. In an 18-to-1 vote, the Senate approved the restrictions on collective bargaining by public employees which Governor Scott Walker has insisted, are needed for the state and local governments to deal with projected budget gaps .
