House Speaker Andy Dillon announced this morning that he is forming an exploratory committee for a possible run for governor. A video was posted on his new website, in which he stated, "I've seen what stands in the way of economic growth, and I know we can change it. But it won't happen with the same old thinking."

Dillon said he would spend the coming weeks "talking to people across our state" and soliciting their concerns and ideas for the future.."
