Hundreds of State Workers to be Laid Off

Gov. Terry Branstad says spending cuts needed to balance the budget will force the layoffs of hundreds of state workers hired during former Gov. Chet Culver's single term in office. At a news conference, Branstad says he'll move quickly to craft a new state budget that will include deep cuts. He wouldn't specify how many jobs will be going, but a spokesperson says it will be in the hundreds.
