There’s no deal
House and Senate leaders have emerged from a lengthy meeting with the governor, but there's no deal. "We had good discussions," said Speaker Lawerence Denney. "The bottom line is he still wants gas tax, and the bottom line is we can't deliver it." So, Denney said, the House now plans to adjourn for the session today - even knowing that it'll have to, by constitutional requirement, be back in three days if the Senate doesn't follow suit. "That's still our intention, yes," Denney said. "There's no indication that we won't have to come back."
