Budget meeting scheduled for 3pm

Gov. Dayton and GOP legislative leaders are scheduled to meet privately at 3pm to discuss their differences on the state budget. It would be the fourth straight day that the two sides have met. They abruptly ended their meeting on Sunday after meeting for just over an hour.

State government would shut down on Friday if Dayton and GOP legislative leaders fail to reach a budget deal by Friday.
