House GOP targets budget

House Republican Leader Richard DeBolt is floating the idea of making $2 billion in new budget cuts by Christmas and skipping next year鈥檚 60-day legislative session.

Gov. Chris Gregoire has said she plans to call lawmakers to Olympia to start a 30-day special session on Nov. 28. But there doesn鈥檛 appear to be a lot of takers on the Democratic side for DeBolt鈥檚 proposal, which he thinks could save $2 million.
