House Speaker Patrick Bauer, D-South Bend, upper left, waits for legislative assistant Lindsay Shipps, left, to finish taking the roll call of absent members at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 21, 2008, as Republicans did not return from a walkout after heated discussions and repeated challenges of rulings of the chair as the House dealt with the illegal immigration bill. The House came to a standstill about 5:30 when the Republicans went to caucus, and Bauer called for them to reconvene at 7:15. Republicans had not shown up yet, so he gave them until 8 p.m., at which time he declared the House in recess until Monday. (AP Photo/The Indianapolis, Star, Charlie Nye) Charlie Nye
