This hour, it affects virtually everyone in the state of Connecticut in one way or another, but it can be difficult to understand.

We dive into the politics and process of funding state government.

Sean Scanlon -- Democratic State Representative from Branford and Guilford and Co-chair of the General Assembly Finance Committee

Catherine Osten -- Democratic State Senator and Co-chair of the General Assembly Appropriations Committee
