MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WIAT) - Tuesday marked the first day of the 2012 Legislative session in Montgomery and lawmakers already have a daunting task ahead.

Budget cuts are all but certain as this year's General Fund is expected to fall millions of dollars short. Those cuts could touch virtually every stage agency. Possible cuts also loom for the state's Education Trust Fund.

Lawmakers also have to deal with debates involving charter schools, taxes and the state's new immigration law.
