I think The Senate Republicans have a problem trying to figure out how they will pass a budget with 17 votes that the governor would be able to sign. And I think that's something that they are struggling with right now. I have told Devin lemahue and I've told Mary Falkowski, the Senate president, that my door is open. (28:20–28:28)
