ALBANY, N.Y. (WIVB) - Despite spending the holiday weekend in Albany, it seems the governor's mandate did little to unite the fractured senate.

News 4 spoke with Senator Antoine Thompson Sunday afternoon.

The local democrat says the governor ordered them back into special session at 6 p.m.

However, the senators met for only a few minutes.

The on-going senate stalemate is now approaching the one-month mark.
