A RINO. The Governor just received back the authority to make mid-year spending corrections. We still have a structural budget situation in which our state spends more than it takes in. Has Chuck De Vore considered the Live Within Our Means measure may not correct the problem? In short, spending money we don't have is not my idea of a responsible budget.

How did he do that? It is one of the things included in the "spending reform". Other than that, I haven't read anything else that would imply increased authority.

I'm convinced it won't even help.

I'm with ya GSgop. The legislators complimenting this sham look more like prostitutes every day.
