  • Mike, that is easily possible, and is being predicted on many fronts. There is no incentive to pass a budget, when we will get a new governor and new legislators. Unfortunately, if the new kids have to start all over, a real possibility, many predictions are that we will not have a budget until January! That would destroy many small independent contractors for the state.
