The state Senate may not accept the changes to the budget made late Thursday by the House, Senate President Andy Biggs said.
The problem goes beyond the fact the House added nearly $54 million to the $9.18 billion spending plan the Senate decided was appropriate, Biggs said, adding that there are details in how that money would be spent that could cause heartburn among the 17 Republicans who control the Senate.
And that, he said, portends the Senate further altering the House-amended plan when it starts reviewing the package today.
