The budget passed the Legislature earlier today.
It's unclear what cuts Governor Schwarzenegger will make with his "blue pencil" veto authority, and we'll see if those cuts--made as a way to get Republican Senate votes--will include health care items. We'll be watching and reporting...
The implications for health reform are also unclear. After a 52-day standoff on the budget, does he still think he can get the 2/3 vote for health reforms in his proposal? And if not, will that have an impact on what he is willing to sign? Stayed tuned.
