Gov. Jim Doyle will sign the 2009-11 budget bill at 11 a.m. Monday at the Executive Residence in Maple Bluff.

The bill passed the Senate on Thursday and Assembly on Friday.

An advisory released by the governor's office this afternoon says Doyle's "Stronger Wisconsin" budget "builds upon the state's commitment to expand access to affordable health care coverage, invests in Wisconsin businesses that will create jobs and lead to future growth, and continues to protect priorities like education and police and fire protection, in the face of unprecedented national economic challenges."

Doyle's timeline for reviewing and and signing the bill, and his window to weigh veto decisions, was greatly reduced because a priority was put on finishing the process by the end of the fiscal year due to the state's $6.6 billion deficit. Waiting past Monday could jeopardize some federal revenue streams, such as about $60 million in Medicaid funding and $15 million for primary enforcement of seat belts.
