"The most phenomenal tug of war ensued which we sort of stayed out of because it was pretty funny, at the end, not particularly the Assembly Democrats but all the Democrats said we want a certain amount of that carved out for all day kindergarten and they end up getting 22 million dollars. So it was ironic that two years before the Governor proposed 26 million, the legislature didn’t want to deal with that, two years later it comes back and got 22 million.” "

- Mike Hillerby, Chief of Staff for Governor Guinn, discussing the funding challenge for saving all day kindergarten.
