Rumors of a possible budget deal are swirling around the state Capitol.
Several media outlets are reporting legislative leaders have agreed to a 27.9 billion dollar budget framework.
Representative Eugene DePasquale, a York County Democrat, tweeted about the progress, saying the agreement doesn’t include any broad-based taxes, and satisfies his party’s demands for education spending.
Majority Leader Todd Eachus was coy about the possible deal during a late-night Rules
"Well you’ll know more about the numbers tomorrow. Once again, I appreciate you trying."
Still, Governor Rendell shot down the idea as he left his office, telling the Associated Press he hasn’t agreed to any budget deal.
