Winter legislative report critiques governor budget and highway funding
Senator Wint Winter recaps the governor's budget as the baseline for state funding. He argues Carlin overstates General Fund increases by excluding transfers and notes the budget would total over 114 percent of current year spending. Winter opposes diverting 20 million from General Revenue to highway repairs, urging funding from vehicle taxes instead and calling the governor a politician after an election.
