We revisit state business with local state lawmakers. This hour, we sit down with Assemblymember Marjorie Byrnes.

Byrnes says she has concerns about the budget, especially when it comes to how decisions in Albany are affecting rural areas, like those in her district. We discuss education, housing, public safety, and more.
