Florida House Speaker Proposes "Continuation Budget" in Response to Senate and House Stalemate

(Tallahassee, FL)   --  Florida State House Speaker Richard Corcoran is proposing a "continuation budget" for the fiscal year that starts July 1 of this year.  

If that happens, current spending levels would remain the same with no cuts or new spending. 

The proposal comes as negotiations between the House and Senate are at a stalemate. The first round of negotiations between the two legislative bodies broke down on Sunday.

The divide prompted Corcoran to lash out at fellow Republicans in the Senate, comparing them to national Democratic leaders Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders. 

Corcoran said there was "no limits to their liberalism."

There are only two weeks left in the session.
