The U.S. Senate had scheduled a vote for late Monday afternoon (Aug. 2) on a bill that would provide Wisconsin an estimated $365 million, according to the State Budget Office. However, the vote has been delayed for a couple of days, because the Congressional Budget Office said today that the costs exceed the offsets by $5 billion. Senator Reid and others will take the next two days to recraft the package so it’s deficit neutral.

A new blog post by the Wisconsin Budget Project provides an overview of the bill and provides links to related resources.
