From MIRS-
The Michigan Senate just moments ago advanced to the desk of Gov. Jennifer GRANHOLM two bills that would allow state government to continue to move forward for the next 30-days thereby avoiding a shutdown.
SB 772 and SB 773 are all tie-barred to key components of a deal winding its way at this late hour through the legislature. SB 772 funds the state's principle agencies for 30-days and allows for debt payments to be made. SB 773 is a 30-day funding bill for the state's K-12 education system.
The Senate is flying. Passing all kinds of stuff. Look at 'em go. Will sort it out soon.
Cropsey calls for short recess.
