The next big step for South Dakota lawmakers will come next week when they get the official revenue numbers for the current fiscal year, and the latest estimates for the next year.
Senator Deb Peters of Hartford says while they will receive the official numbers Monday morning, they are getting some early indications.

Peters says she is also reaching out to democrats on budget priorities.

Peters says she has a schedule planned for next weeks budget work.

Peters says she hopes to work through the budget and amendments and wrap that up on Friday, which is the last scheduled day of the main run of the session. Legislators will return to Pierre on March 30th for the final day.
