The Joint Finance Committee voted 12-4 to approve the budget adjustment bill, with the dozen Dems voting yes and the four Republicans on the committee voting against.

The bill will now head to the Senate, which will hold a floor session beginning at 11 a.m. tomorrow. The Assembly has tentatively scheduled a 2 p.m. session to vote on the bill. The Dem lawmakers goal is to pass it quickly so Gov. Jim Doyle can sign it on Friday.
