Alabama General Fund Faces Shortfall May Need Help
Alabama's general fund may need an emergency transfusion to avoid a hole for the fiscal year says State Budget Officer James V. Jordan. He estimated a shortfall of 1 to 2 million dollars, with profits from state liquor stores down, contributing to the potential deficit. Jordan proposed options including abolishing rent controls, collecting part of debt, and reallocating ABC board profits to cover the shortfall.
