Sprouse pushes plan to overhaul Senate finance review
Senate Minority Leader Vic Sprouse proposes a fourto five office linebyline budget examination by the full Finance Committee to curb spending. He calls current hearings underattended and wasteful, favoring tighter scrutiny of constitutional offices, with budget decisions sped up or slowed as needed. He notes large state staff growth and aims to force departments to justify requests. He expects Walt Helmick to consider a tougher approach.
