Since we started session this morning at 10:00, got done by 12:30 and don’t have session or a committee meeting on Sunday until 5:00, I took the opportunity to come home and get some clean clothes and some work done locally, including mowing my grass. The budget negotiations are ongoing with some encouraging news and then some news of set backs. This is typical, from what I have learned but the clock is ticking. June 30th is Monday and there is no way, mechanically, that the budget will be done in time making Ed Rendell 0 for 6 with his budgets. We will have had 12 late budgets since Milton Shapp was Governor and 6 of those are from this Governor. If anyone wonders where the breakdown in the process is, this answers it.
