Rendell Vows To Veto Legislative Budget Agreement

Gov. Rendell this afternoon told reporters the legislative budget framework announced by three of the four caucuses does not meet his goals and he will veto the bill if it reaches his desk. "If they override my veto, they override," he said.
Meanwhile the environmental group PennFuture called provisions requiring the leasing of additional State Forest lands for natural gas drilling a "sweetheart" deal for the natural gas industry.
