Governor Dewey Frames Budget Strain Amid Education Push
Governor Dewey warned the budget faces its toughest test yet as he met lawmakers and committees to discuss how to fund state services. He cited capital requests cut from 730,000,000 to 89,000,000 and noted no new armories with reduced health, conservation, and public works spending.
