New budget to be unveiled
during emergency meeting
Associated Press
AUSTIN — The Legislative Bud
get Board has called an emergency
meeting for Wednesday when,
according to Lt. Gov. Bill Hobby, an
“alternative budget” will be pre
sented.
Hobby said the new proposed
budget would not include a tax in
crease but would include a tuition in
crease for college students. Hobby
has said he favors a tuition increase
for all students.
On Jan. 15, Gov. Mark Whitef 1 '
sented his no-new taxes budget ^
$36.1 billion, an increase of SM
million over the EBB proposal.
Senate leader Ray Farabee It 1 '
said he doesn’t think a one-yearbrf
get is inevitable. But added dial 1
continual decrease in revenue
would eventually press the Legts
lature to one.
Asked if the EBB might consider
a one-year budget rather than the
usual two-years, Hobby replied,
“Come and find out, come to the
meeting.”
The EBB in December approved
a two-year budget proposal that
would spend $35.8 billion from all
funds, including taxes. The EBB
document is traditionally used as the
preliminary document by both the
House and the Senate.
State Comptroller Bob Bu
whose job is to project the mone'
state government has to spend,
said he doesn’t see how the Legis
lature can stay away from annual
sessions to plan and adopt budgets!
T he way the system works now,
lock must project as far aheadas2li
years.
Bullock’s most recent revenue es
timate was that the Legislate
needed an extra $1.1 billion to f
nance state services at their currea 1
levels over the next two years.
