“It’s a very unpleasant experience.”   That’s how Deputy Budget Director Mark Ojakian described what has been going on at the Governor’s office in terms of the cuts, layoffs, closings, and service reductions announced this week.    

During a taping of “Face the State,” the former aide to one-time Comptroller Nancy Wyman, explained the cutbacks, and talks about the only way they can “possibly”  be prevented.   

Tune in this Sunday morning at 11AM for Face the State, only on Channel 3.
