Even though the current state legislative session is rapidly drawing to a close, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger yesterday expressed optimism that an agreement can be reached on his sweeping health care plan.

“They understand that this is a rare opportunity where we can do this,” he said of the legislators, who are scheduled to adjourn in two weeks.

“They have different ideas, but I tell you there is a willingness to work together to make this work. I can gauge that from the meetings that we have had.”
