Do y'all realize that HALF of the state's budget for next year will be Medicaid? It's untouchable.
K-12 education is untouchable.
Money to local governments is untouchable.
Call a constitutional convention and tear that fricking thing up. I'm all in. Meanwhile, I am prepared to vote for some sort of reasonable gas tax, provided they can set up a lockbox in the state treasurer's office.
BTW, y'all need to vote for Julie Stokes for Treasurer. She is a CPA, very conservative, and very smart.

But isn't it mostly made up of federal funds?

That is a goddamned outrage.

Yeah, but only 2.8 billion of that 12 is general fund money. And only 700 million is dedicated. The other 9 nillion is federal funds.

I question Julie's conservative status. She likes taxes.

No. No. Sweet Baby Jesus No. And I'm a CPA who's excited when other CPAs get involved in politics.
But No. She's, how do I say this nicely, a lightweight.
You know how in every graduating class, someone has to finish last, but they still get a diploma? There you go.
