The Senate is expected to vote Thursday on bills that raise $2.8 billion through tax increases before considering the budget.
The spending plan includes property tax relief for 1.1 million seniors and low-income residents.
The last-minute relief was possible because a tax amnesty program collected nearly $500 million from corporations and individuals.
About half the residents who got rebates last year will see checks this fall. Those making more than $75,000 and renters will lose their rebates.
Assembly Republicans objected to every tax increase bill, and none approved the budget.
