Ind. Gov't. - Gov. Daniels' reaction to walkout that "killed" more than 130 bills
The Indianapolis Star website is also reporting this afternoon Governor Daniels' reaction to yesterday's House action. Access it here. A sample:
Gov. Mitch Daniels spared no criticism of House Democrats today for staging a walkout that killed more than 130 bills, including some elements of Daniels's legislative package."Indiana's drive for growth and reform was car bombed yesterday by the Indiana House minority," Daniels said today during a Statehouse news conference. "Any pretense notwithstanding, it is clear that this cynical action was planned from the start of the session."
Daniels, a Republican, asserted he had made compromises with Democrats, but was continually frustrated.
Daniels assigned blame to Minority Leader B. Patrick Bauer.
"If you want to know why Indiana's economy fell behind, why state government is broke, broken, and awash in scandal, just look at Mr. Bauer."
