9:34Now PlayingJust days away from the end of the 2021 legislative session, Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka told the media that ‘there’s progress’ when asked about the status of end-of-session budget negotiations. He took questions from the press on a number of topics following the Thursday, May 13, floor session.
Lawmakers have until midnight, Monday, May 17, to reach a budget agreement for the state’s next two-year budget. Gazelka described the $2.8 billion the state will receive in federal COVID-19-related stimulus as a ‘wrinkle’ that has slowed the usual pace of budget talks. “We’re not talking over each other, we’re talking to each other,” he said.
