Governor's ill-advised 2002-03 South Carolina budget plan
South Carolina officials from both parties oppose Gov. Hodges budget proposals saying they would delay hard choices until post election. Comptroller General Jim Lander warns a $133 million school payment delay and possible cash shortfalls could jeopardize bills and AAA rating. Treasurer Grady Patterson cautions spending not present risks higher debt costs. Critics urge cut spending, not tax hikes, amid a $319 million deficit and recession impact. The plan would shortchange districts by $133 million and force largest cuts after the election, prompting potential teacher pay impacts and district losses.
