Senate President Russell Pearce, R-Mesa, watches the votes tally to adjourn during a special session in the senate chambers at the capitol, Monday, June 13, 2011, in Phoenix. The Arizona Legislature adjourned a two-day special session without voting on a proposal to keep 20 weeks of federally funded extended unemployment benefits flowing to thousands of jobless people. Gov. Jan Brewer had sought to change a formula in state law so jobless Arizonans could continue to the extended unemployment benefits, but faced opposition from some GOP lawmakers. (AP Photo/Ross D.
