A Constructive Proposal

At 11:00 this morning Assembly Republicans rolled out their plan to substantially meet California's infrastructure needs without incurring mountains of debt. Credit it due to Assembly Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy for championing this issue; and praise is due to the hard working policy staff at the Assembly Republican Caucus for developing a positive, constructive and sensible infrastructure proposal.

Credit must also be given to Jon Fleischman at the Flashreport for scooping everyone in California with the full story - here.

I am glad to see constructive proposals introduced to meet the infrastructure needs of the state without incurring billions in debt. This is type of policy discussion that makes the legislature a great deliberative body - that's if there is any discussion; remember, the Democrats will most likely just bury this proposal. I hope I am wrong; it will be interesting to see what the Democrats and the governor do with the Assembly Republican's pay-as-you-go option.
