Pawlenty Prepares Appeal

(AP) An appeal is planned by Governor Pawlenty of the court loss that cast doubt on the $2.7 billion in cuts that he made to the State budget. Pawlenty is looking to overturn the ruling that he took Executive Authority tood far. Wednesday, a Judge ordered the Governor to reinstate a food program for the poor in a decision that was seen as a broa3der indictment of Pawlenty's budget actions. Pawlenty did not rule out making further unilateral cuts--known as Unallotments. He's said he will be asking lawmakers to agree on a plan to formalize $1.7 billion in school aid deferrals.
