Source: Agreement reached on state stimulus bill
Lawmakers have reached a general overall agreement on a state stimulus package, a source with knowledge of the deal told WisPolitics this afternoon.
The source said details would likely be released tomorrow.
The governor and lawmakers have been working to hammer out a deal on a state bill that would complement the federal stimulus package, streamline processes for moving federal money into state projects and include job creation efforts.
Senate Majority Leader Russ Decker, D-Weston, said last week he would also like to see the budget deficit in the current fiscal year, which ends June 30, addressed in the package as well.
