Gov. Chris Sununu and legislative leaders say they’ve reached a compromise on the state budget.
The full Legislature is scheduled to vote on the proposal Wednesday.
Sununu, a Republican, said the compromise plan doesn’t increase taxes. Senate Leader Donna Soucy, a Democrat, said the budget maintains vital investments in mental health, substance abuse disorder treatment, child protection, and raises Medicaid reimbursement rates for providers.
The state’s been operating under a temporary spending plan since Sununu vetoed the budget in June. That plan was set to expire at the end of the month.
The main sticking point was business tax cuts that Democrats wanted to roll back.
