CABL's Barry Erwin Talks Regular Session End, 2nd Special Session (AUDIO)

A special session of the Legislature is getting underway today.

The governor called the session after no agreement on a budget was reached prior to the end of the regular session last Thursday evening.

The sticking point has to do with whether to keep aside millions of dollars in a rainy day fund in the event of a budget deficit next year.

Today state House lawmakers meet and the state Senate is meeting on Wednesday to take up the matter.
