Senate To Return To Albany Dec. 15

November
21

Senate Republicans are not done yet.

Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos, R-Nassau County, announced that the Senate will return on Dec. 15 to pass their own plan to deal with the state’s budget gap.

“It’s important that we take action to close this year’s budget gap as we begin work on a new budget Governor Paterson has promised to submit early,” Skelos said in a statement. “The legislation that we will advance and act on will include significant spending reductions, recurring savings actions and important initiatives to maximize revenue.”

Senate Republicans, who face being in the minority in January, also called on the Democratic-controlled Assembly to put forward their own plan. So far, neither chamber has recommended ways to curb the state’s $1.5 billion budget gap for this year.

    It would not be out of the realm of possibility that these gonifs come back in December in order to stick a raise for themselves in amongst the printed verbiage.
