Both houses have put budget action on pause for the night, as a proposal to eliminate local redevelopment agencies remains one vote short of passage in the Assembly.
Gov. Jerry Brown emerged at about 8 p.m. from the office of Assembly Speaker John A. Perez, where he had been meeting with lawmakers in hopes of securing the one Republican vote needed to send the plan for a vote in the Senate, saying he would continue to work to advance the proposal.
"There's some plan that the more things they derail the better. I don't believe that," he said of Assembly Republicans holding off on the vote. "We're going to make the cuts one way or the other, that's for sure."
Here's a video of Brown's comments on budget progress and his talks with Republicans.
