A dozen House and Senate members resolved final differences over
public education and state-supported health care and revenue
sources during the day Saturday.

House and Senate leaders expected final handshakes and
signatures on a compromise that the House and Senate will consider
in a late afternoon Sunday session.

Majority Leader Dick Saslaw planned to convene the Senate at 5
p.m. Sunday, allowing a vote after members are briefed on
recommended changes.

Any compromise will contain draconian reductions, ensuring
thousands of governmental layoffs and pressure on local governments
to boost their taxes to preserve some services.
