The Union Leader runs Norma Love's AP report on the first of negotiations for the House-Senate Committee of Conference on the state budget:
New Hampshire House and Senate negotiators started work Monday on a budget compromise as they typically do: getting the easy stuff out of the way.
For example, they agreed to use federal funds for a cottontail rabbit management program, but did not tackle the big differences in their versions of the $11.6 billion budget for the two years beginning July 1.
Those decisions will come as talks progress. The deadline to agree is June 18.
