Thanks for having a report on this, Herald Net. It's pretty disappointing for this to be coming in a that last moment. I know a budget shutdown would hurt many people who depend on support from the state that can't be interrupted, like meals for seniors, but I'd like to see some kind of continuing budget resolution for a month or two, while the legislators get a chance to meet with their constituents and make changes. I'm pretty sure this won't happen, because the budget leaders aren't interested in continuing this process and perhaps they don't want to allow changes on a probably delicate negotiation. 

But we deserve better than this for our state.
