Schaefer to give 'doomsday budget to state lawmakers
ANNAPOLIS AP Gov William Donald Schaefer plans to deliver his fiscal 1993 doomsday budget to the General Assembly on Thursday as lawmakers brace for deep cuts without new revenue. The plan, amid pressure for tax increases, triggers two days of joint tax hearings and fears of loss of Marylands AAA bond rating if a budget accord is not reached. The storm-affected Ocean City debate on beach replenishment tax funding also colors the session as D and opponents clash over spending.
