Day One of Senate Budget Hearings
On the first day of senate appropriations committee budet hearings, GOP members didn't go easy on Budget Secretary Mary Soderberg.
Senator Mary Jo White of Venango and Warren counties told that the state should allow more gas drilling on 2 million acres of state forest land.
York County's Mike Waugh questioned whether it's wise to drain most of the state's contingency reserve fund, as Governor Rendell is proposing.
Appropriations Chairman Jake Corman of Centre County says Rendell's proposed budget could create a disaster unless the economy stages a dramatic turnaround.
