Beshear Working On State Budget
KENTUCKY....
According to House Speaker Greg Stumbo, the staff of Governor Steve Beshear is working on a new proposal for a two-year spending plan. Beshear spokeswoman Kerri Richardson did not confirm whether Beshear is working on a compromise budget or when such a proposal would be announced, but she did say that staff members continue to work on the budget. Stumbo says a new plan from Beshear would likely help resolve the impasse between the House and the Senate. Stumbo says the legislature typically agrees to about 98 percent of what a governor proposes.
