“The supplemental budget – and all of the critical funding it includes for child care, child protection, nursing homes, housing, public safety, and other vital needs – is one of our highest priorities right now. The Legislature has less than a week to finish its business before statutory adjournment, and there is broad agreement among lawmakers that the Appropriations Committee should move to reconsider the budget immediately in order to make changes needed to move it forward. The Speaker and I agree, and are calling for, the Appropriations Committee to reconvene immediately – meaning today – to reconsider the budget and arrive at a final product that invests in critical needs while maintaining the budget’s sustainability over the long-term.”
