Senators Hopeful About On-Time Budget

State senators on both sides of the aisle say they’re making real progress in budget negotiations.

Democratic Whip Mike O’Pake says he hopes the talks don’t stall.

“Hopefully we will make significant steps next week so that we’re ready by June 30th to send a package to the governor which he can sign, and that way we will fulfill our responsibilities to the taxpayers of Pennsylvania,” he said.

SPeaking on the Senate floor Wednesday, Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi said he thinks they are on a path that will lead to passage and adoption of a budget by June 30.

The Senate will be back in session on Monday.
