House 'Big Chair' Jason Saine on How We Got Here in the Budget Process

After weeks of hearing that a budget would be a conference report agreement between the House and Senate, the House pulled the trigger and released its own budget this week.  Meanwhile the Senate said it's heading home at the end of June.  

Rep. Jason Saine is a senior budget writer in the House and he takes listeners behind-the-scenes on how we got here in the process and what we can expect next.

In other news, some bills are merging, others are collapsing, and all signs point to a General Assembly shut down in July and August.
