Dahl calls state leaders dysfunctional

A new fiscal year and no state budget. Senator Gary Dahl says the lack of progress in Springfield has made him frustrated. He blames Governor Pat Quinn, House Speaker Mike Madigan, and Senate President John Cullerton, all Democrats, for using the people of Illinois for their own political gain.
When Quinn became governor earlier this year, Dahl was hopeful they would pass a budget without working through the summer, but now he says the administration is dysfunctional.
The senate adjourned last night. Dahl is unsure when he’ll be called back. He thinks it could be as late as the week of July 13.
