State Budget Cuts Okayed
Annapolis AP legislators reported agreeing on about 2 million in cuts from the 326 million general fund budget submitted by Gov Tawes on Feb 5. The cuts mainly target agency requests for more cars as Maryland lawmakers tighten control over state vehicle use. The budget totals around 680 million with federal and dedicated state funds, and key issues remain whether to raise the income tax or pass a 16.2 million school aid program. A 27 million surplus could delay a tax hike until next January. The session ends March 5.
