Decker says transpo concerns legit

Sen. Fitzgerald restated his worry that the transportation fund will be a refuge for the governor, saying that he sees a scenario where the governor could easily veto the provision to delay $125 million in school aid payments.

"The only place to go is back to the transportation fund," Fitzgerald said.

Decker said the concerns "are legitimate" but said the hospital assessment would have addressed the problem, but Fitzgerald and his Republican colleagues opposed it.

Decker said there is no certainty the governor will veto the school aid provision.

"He may just take this because none of us got everything we wanted," he said.
