The State Legislature is expected to vote this week on plans to fix a cumulative $24 billion hole in the budget they already approved last February for the coming fiscal year, and the current year ending June 30. A 10-member, two-house legislative committee (three Democrats and two Republicans from each house) took about a month to overhaul the governor's latest budget proposal released last month.
