Gov. Jim Doyle and staff for legislative leaders continue to be optimistic that a fix to the state’s budget shortfall can be found soon.

Assembly Speaker Mike Huebsch and Senate Majority Leader Russ Decker planned a meeting Monday. They and representatives from Doyle’s office have been meeting regularly to talk about the $652 million shortfall.
Decker spokeswoman Carrie Lynch says everyone wants to solve the problem soon and they are looking at all options.
