LAO Overview of the Governor's Budget

"The 2006-07 Governor's Budget now projects that the state will be able to fund much more than a current-law budget and still maintain fiscal balance in 2006-07. The plan, however, moves the state in the wrong direction in terms of reaching its longer-term goal of getting its fiscal house in order. Given the state's current structural budget shortfall, we believe that the 2006-07 budget should focus more on paying down existing debt before making expansive new commitments." ~ LAO's Overview of the Governor's Budget.
