From Post-Gazette.com:
State Senate leaders today boycotted a conference committee meeting to discuss a state budget proposal and prepared to introduce their own budget plan this evening.
Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi, R-Delaware, said today that Senate Republicans, joined by Senate Democrats, are fashioning a revised budget bill and a companion tax bill, and will make them public tonight. The two measures could be voted on in the Senate as early as tomorrow and sent to the House.
If the House were to agree, the bills could be on the governor’s desk by late this week, he said.
