Protesters camp at Statehouse over home care cuts plan
About 20 protesters pitched tents outside the Statehouse to oppose budget cuts affecting home care and social services. Lawmakers debated two budget proposals, one cutting education and social services significantly, the other relying on one time funds and reserves. Oxford accused lawmakers of asking those below the poverty line to bear taxes, while several reps urged restraint on using one time money.
