Assembly Democrats should be ready to vote on a bill fixing the state's $527 million budget shortfall next week, Minority Leader Rep. Jim Kreuser said in an e-mail to colleagues Wednesday.

While there's been no "official word," Kreuser said Democrats should be ready to vote Tuesday so $261 million in spring transportation contracts can go ahead without delay.

There were no signs that a deal had been reached.
