Legislature Readies Cut in General Appropriations Bill
Phoenix reports the general appropriations bill nearly cuts a million from the regular year total as the joint appropriation committee finalizes the measure and plans to introduce it in the house. A second bill repeals about 168 continuing statutory appropriations while lawmakers probe session laws for further cuts. A Democratic Senate caucus at Hotel Adams offered no details. House Bill No 2 on street paving is stalled in the senate due to a motion striking a validating clause, though the aim remains competition in bids.
