Seven senator coalition known as the Gang of Seven pushed through a Senate Budget and Taxation Committee package cutting 49 million from Gov. Hughes proposed FY budget. The plan keeps abortion funding restrictions for poor women, requires 15 million set aside for Medicaid deficits, and aligns closely with the House version as debate looms.
