9:39 am
decisions, but he maintains it's the responsible thing to do. >> californians deserve a balance, on-time budget. and here's my promise. we're going to deliver that to them here in the coming week, senate president pro tempore mike mcguire making that promise to the people of california during an exclusive one-on-one interview with us. it comes as the state faces a projected budget deficit that could range anywhere from 38 to 73 billion dollars. >> we have a budget deficit just as we always do at home. we need to be able to get our budget in line with our finances. he says legislative leaders are doing exactly that just hours before this interview, mcguire governor gavin newsom and assembly speaker robert remus announced an early budget action agreement to shrink the deficit by 17.3 billion dollars. just how they plan to do it. their proposal calls for 5.2 billion in borrowing. another 5.2 billion in funding delays and 3.6 billion in actual cuts including a 300 plus million dollar cut to some climate programs. a
