Governor Might Delay State Budget Proposal (AP)

Gov. Jim Doyle said he might delay releasing his proposal for a state budget if a federal stimulus package isn’t ready.

Doyle expects to release his budget on Feb. 10.

Wisconsin faces a $5.7 billion deficit and Doyle said he hopes the state will get billions in federal stimulus aid to help fill it. But Congress continues to debate the size and scope of the stimulus package.
