Lawmakers approve another budget extender

Lawmakers approve another budget extender as work continues on the budget.

Lawmakers in Albany have approved another budget extender that will keep the state funded through at least Thursday.

Legislators voted to push back the budget deadline last week as they continued to finalize the state’s spending plan.

Now, lawmakers will pass another budget extender later this week, The Times Union reported.
