Governor Pawlenty held a press conference this afternoon and said the following. "The basic responsibility of the legislature is to responsibly pass a balanced budget and the DFL failed," Governor Pawlenty said. "They spent $34 billion when they only had $31 billion available. But politics as usual around this place is over. We're not going to have a special session or a state government shutdown. Tough decisions are ahead, but those decisions need to be made if we are going to get through this difficult economic time and build towards a better future." -- May 19, 2009 |

Governor Pawlenty held a press conference this afternoon and said the following. "Politics as usual around this place is over. The people of Minnesota expect and deserve timely and decisive action. I will not let the legislature's work spill over into a special session. We are not going to waste taxpayer money with a costly overtime or have a state government shutdown, especially in this economy. My preference would be for DFL legislators to work with me on a reasonable budget solution, but if they can't get that done I will take executive action to balance the budget." -- May 14, 2009 |
