House is on the budget

By Aaron Gould Sheinin | Thursday, February 26, 2009, 02:32 PM

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

With Georgia Power done with, and after a all-too-brief lunch break, the House is back in action on the amended, $18.9 billion, amended 2009 state budget.

House Appropriations Committee Chairman Ben Harbin (R-Evans) is explaining the budget rapt (sort of) House chamber.

While this bill could, under House rules, be amended on the floor, there isn’t expected to be much of a fight given the state’s dire financial situation, and given the need to move quickly.

But, that could sure change.
