Beshear Gets Budget Legislation
KENTUCKY....
Governor Steve Beshear took final action on legislation passed by the General Assembly during last week’s special session, which provided a biennial Executive Branch spending. “This budget passed by the General Assembly is not what I wanted, and not what I originally proposed,” Gov. Beshear said. “However, it is better than having to shut down state government, and I will work hard to minimize its impact on Kentucky families.” Gov. Beshear vetoed provisions in the budget bill passed by the General Assembly that would restrict his ability to implement the cuts required by it. “My administration must have maximum flexibility to manage state government through these extremely difficult times, while continuing to provide essential services to our people.”, the Governor said.
