Governor Mark Dayton's top budget official says he'll recommend the Governor Vito, most of the GOP-controlled legislature's budget bills in their current form.

Social service bills have some of the largest discrepancies. For example, Fran cited $321 million in projected health care savings in the House's Health and Human Services Bill.
