State budget deal reportedly reached - Part 2

As we noted yesterday on this blog, there is a reported deal between the legislative Democrats and the governor regarding the state budget for 2020-21 fiscal year (which starts July 1).

Here is another excerpt from a report today, this one from CalMatters/WhatMatters, a news email service:

Newsom and the Legislature reached a budget deal Monday that avoids the governor’s proposed cuts to K-12 schools, community colleges and health care and safety net programs but reduces funding for the UC and CSU systems, courts and state employee salaries. Full details of the agreement was [sic] not released Monday.

One suspects that the deep dark secret is that the details have not been released because there was some kind of handshake detail regarding broad outlines and how those outlines are translated into an actual budget is being worked out. Note that the quote above may (or may not) be in contradiction to the excerpt of yesterday. We'll have to be patient and wait.
