State senators discuss issues facing state budget after fifth extension is passed
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — It'll be try number six at the state budget when lawmakers meet again in Albany later this week. 'We're doing the budget extender to meet payroll. We're going to back here Thursday doing the same,' said State Senator Chris Ryan. 'While we're doing that, we'll be passing those extenders. We're still talking and negotiating.' As a freshman, the state senator is learning how much law-making, not just number crunching, bogs down the process. 'This is new to me, but some of the issues that we are hung up on are pretty heavy on the policy side,' Ryan said. 'Specifically, cell phone bans and discovery laws, so we're working through those. I'm hopeful and optimistic.'
