Meeting Of Appropriations Committee’s Leadership ‘Very Tense’

The Legislature’s Appropriations Committee was scheduled to work on bills for a potential special session of the Legislature, but Wednesday, when the leaders of the committee met, it was clear that they are at something of an impasse.

Mal Leary sat in on the meeting of the chairs and party heads of the committee, and he spoke with Maine Things Considered Host Nora Flaherty about the proceedings.
