The Legislature is now halfway to meeting its constitutional obligation.
The Senate has passed with some amendments the House proposed $1.9 billion general fund budget.
The General Fund budget pays for all non-education related state expenses.
The House will have to concur with the amendments before the bill heads to Gov. Bob Riley's desk.
The Senate still has to tackle the education budget, which could come to the floor as early as Thursday for debate.
Update: The House concurred on about $6 million in additions to the General Fund Budget, bring the grand total to just over $2 million. The budget is now in the hands of Gov. Bob Riley.
