Be prepared for the swiftest 27 minutes and 44 seconds of "Arizona Week" yet. That's the allotted time for Friday's program to wrap up the 100-plus days of the state Legislature's regular session.

Journalists Mary Jo Pitzl of the Arizona Republic, Luige del Puerto of the Arizona Capitol Times, Mike Sunnucks of the Phoenix Business Journal and Christopher Conover of Arizona Public Media will discuss the session's accomplishments, shortcomings and unfinished business.

We will dwell on the state budget overall, education funding cuts, the economic development package including health-care cuts and what happened with the latest round of immigration legislation.

Friday at 8:30 p.m. MST on "Arizona Week", PBS HD.
