GOP to propose cuts in Vilsack budget plan
DES MOINES AP Republicans release Auditor Richard Johnson critique of Gov. Tom Vilsack 2001 budget saying it oversteps spending limits by at least 50 million. They plan to push for cuts through appropriation subcommittees while Democrats defend legality and a counter review from the Legislative Fiscal Bureau. The House also moves to allocate 278000 for a World War II monument donation honoring Iowa veterans. Construction on the 100 million Rainbow Pool project would start on Veterans Day near the National Mall.
