“I mean that money comes in and I have to have. I am not putting executive branch officials in a position where, where they are doing something that they don't have legal justification to do. I do not think I need to call the legislature back. I can follow [the attorney general's opinion] and I am going to disperse the money because I think that is, that is how the law sets up.
