Following along with the state budget negotiations can be confusing, frustrating and tiring. That's why you have us, to be a constant check on lawmakers throughout the process to find out what they're making deals on behind closed doors. And also to let you know when one of our fellow colleagues is arrested for talking on his cell phone in the Senate lobby. Joining us to talk more about this year's budget process are the members of the Reporter Roundtable: Karen DeWitt from New York Public Radio, Susan Arbetter from Capitol Pressroom.
