MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald says there’s “no deal yet” on the state budget. Fitzgerald spoke to reporters Thursday after holding a conference call with other Republican senators. Earlier in the day Assembly Republicans said they had agreed with an offer from Gov. Scott Walker to use $200 million originally planned for an income tax cut to pay for roads. But Fitzgerald says Senate Republicans are still “strong” on wanting to reduce or eliminate the personal property tax. Senators had wanted to use that $200 million for that. Fitzgerald says he plans to speak with Walker about the budget Thursday night and Assembly Speaker Robin Vos after that. The budget is three weeks late.
