Staff reports | There seems to be an alarmist tone in the coverage in traditional media about the state’s $8 billion annual budget on how use state tax dollars.
It goes like this: The House and Senate are out of their regular session earlier than usual. There’s not a ratified budget yet, even though a conference committee is meeting. The House cancelled its meeting this week and won’t be back until June 6. On top of that, the Senate passed a stopgap measure to use the current budget next year if the General Assembly doesn’t get a budget by July 1.
