Morning Edition: Special Session Looming

http://cptv.vo.llnwd.net/o2/ypmwebcontent/2011/2011_06_30_File%20me%20edith%20prague.wav.mp3

With only hours to go before a new fiscal year, The General Assembly convenes a special session today to deal with a 700 million dollar hole in the state budget. That hole was left after the state's unionized workers voted against a concessions package that would have saved the state 1.6 billion dollars over two years. Joining us by phone this morning is State Senator Edith Prague, she is the chair of the legislatures Labor and Public Employees committee.
