$5.8 billion budget passes by more than two-thirds vote
The Legislature passed a $5.8 billion budget by more than a two-thirds majority to address both a shortfall in the current fiscal year as well as projected shortfalls in the coming two-year period. Some who voted against the budget said that revenue projections have been overstated and that cuts should have been deeper to avoid returning for additional cuts at a later date.
