Governor Bristles At Meeting Before Using Veto Powers

The Governor is still waiting for an education funding bill to be sent to him and that leaves little for lawmakers to do during a second day of a special session.
 
Republican Bruce Rauner says it’s the Democrats playing games with the future of opening schools on time on the line. Democrat Senate President John Cullerton says if the Governor would just be open about what changes he’d make in SB1 then the process could move quickly towards finding a compromise. Rauner counters a Governor doesn’t have to negotiate parts of his amendatory veto powers. 
 
 
Cullerton says the bill will be sent to the Governor on Monday.
