What awaits him is the rather daunting job of winning over lawmakers and convincing them that the way to balance the budget in the current economic climate is to raise the state income tax by 50 percent.
“It’s never easy, with seven days to go, you don’t sleep. It’s seven days and seven nights, so I don’t plan to sleep, we gotta get it done,” said Quinn.
