Budget bills are
signed
Gov. Tim Pawlenty signed the remaining state
budget bills on July 14, as he tried to shift the focus at the Capitol away

state, to put their spin on the session's outcome.

Those employees are now back at work. Many other interested parties are reviewing the fine print to sort out the winners and losers.
