Robson pushes for progress

Sen. Robson says the Dems are making a "real offer" today on tech college funding, and wants to know what it will take to get it done today.

"Let's have the story today be the progress we've made at this table," she said. "What is it going to take to get this deal done today, right here right now."

She said the plan of Assembly Republicans to pass a separate bill to fund schools and local governments show they're trying to get a "budget re-do." She bashed Rep. Huebsch for working and negotiating his own with caucus instead of negotiating with Dems. She likened it to "tapdancing on top of a treadmill."

"The budget's not going to get done in your caucus, the budget's going to get done at this table with discussions with the Senate," she said.
