Olson Worries about The Governor's Budget Fix

State Senator Mary Olson of Bemidji sees major problems with the Governor's budget fix. The state is facing a $1.2 billion dollar revenue shortfall for the current biennium.

Senator Olson tells KLKS News, the Governor's fix is based on $400-million dollars of federal money that has yet to be approved.

The Bemidji DFL-er says if the federal funds are not approved by the congress, the state would run out of money.
