There are just hours left in the 2014 legislative session, which means it’s time for lawmakers to start cramming in bills. This hour, we discuss the messy state budget with The Connecticut Mirror’s budget guru Keith Phaneuf.

We also talk about Freedom of Information, something that was changed in the closing minutes of the last session.

GUESTS:

  • Colin McEnroe - Host of The Colin McEnroe Show on WNPR
  • Keith Phaneuf - Budget reporter for The Connecticut Mirror
  • Jeff Cohen - WNPR’s capital region reporter
  • Jim Smith - President of the Connecticut Council on Freedom of Information

Tucker Ives is WNPR's morning news producer.
Catie Talarski is Senior Director of Storytelling and Radio Programming at Connecticut Public.
