"Senate Republicans are ready to work with the State Assembly to pass a balanced budget that cuts taxes and responsibly invests in core priorities," LeMahieu said in a statement. 

His counterpart in the Assembly, Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester), said Senate Republicans walked away from negotiations. 

"We hope Senate Republicans will come back to the table to finish fighting for these reforms and complete the budget on time," Vos and JFC Co-Chair Rep. Mark Born (R-Beaver Dam) said in a statement.
