Here’s where we are.

1.  Republicans say Democrats are including ridiculous demands for labor.

2.  Democrats say the GOP wants a two-year delay on unemployment that will cost the state $500 million.

3.   The Speaker doesn’t think they’ll be done tonight.

4.  The GOP doesn’t think there’s any reason to go past today.

5.  Not sure if the House can Sine Die with only 50 Democrats present.

As one my media colleagues just wrote, the wheels are coming off in front of our very eyes.

The House is adjourned until 6:30 p.m.

Here are Senate Pro Tempore David Long and House Republican leader Brian Bosma’s comments for those of you who care.

This can’t be good.

I’m getting word this evening from my sources at the Statehouse that the real reason Indiana lawmakers can’t get anything done is because House Democrats don’t have a majority to pass anything, instead they only have 50 votes,  and you need 51.

State Rep. Dennie Oxley, Sr. has been out with health problems and State Rep. Craig Fry is reportedly down in Florida watching spring training.  Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think taking off work during your potentially busiest time of the year is a good idea.  Especially when there are serious issues that need to be worked out.

Meanwhile sources say Senate Republicans keep caving into the Democrats on just about every issue, when Democrats don’t have the votes.

I’m going to try to sort all this out in the morning, but I can tell you one thing,  this is a heck of a way to close out the last days of session.
