Even though Albany managed to keep the state government open for one more week, Governor Paterson isn't sure the Legislature can get its act together to pass another budget extender—especially not when he's loading them with cuts for the year. With the state budget overdue by over two months, Paterson says millions in cuts he's including in the latest week's budget extender will be from public safety, economic development and transportation, all to close the $9.2 billion budget gap. He warned, "The state is out of money right now," and even says he might lay off up to 10,000 state workers this year.
