Sacramento, CA – After months of bickering and bargaining, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and the state legislature finally agreed on a series of bond measures late Thursday night - or, since it was sometime around 3am, let's say early Friday morning. The governor first proposed what he calls his Strategic Growth Plan at his State of the State address in January.

KAZU's Ben Adler spoke with two Monterey Bay Area state lawmakers: State Sen. Jeff Denham (R-Merced, who represents Salinas) and Assemblyman John Laird (D-Santa Cruz).
