Time to change horses?

Rep. Kreuser says the committee chairs should come back at 8 o'clock tonight with some agreements in place. He warned of dire consequences if there isn't some real sign of progress by the end of this week.

"We need to get rid of the show horses and get the work horses in here," Kreuser said. "We need to come to terms on the pillars of this budget."

He also ripped Huebsch for trying to negotiate an "a la carte" budget, referring to Huebsch's call to set K-12 funding and a local government levy limit while continuing to seek agreement on the rest of the budget.

"I think people in the state want a whole budget done," he said.
