Democrats blast
Clements’ budge
as ‘shortsighted’
ABILI
AUSTIN (AP) — Gov. Bill Clem
ents’ proposed state budget is a
short-sighted plan that would take
aid from the sick, elderly, needy, stu
dents and farmers. Democratic sen
ators charged Thursday.
Delivering their formal response
to Clements’ State of the State mes
sage, the lawmakers said Clements’
demand that taxes not rise al>ove
current levels is out of touch.
“This state should not be subject
to a budget proposal derived from
misplaced priorities and unrealistic
assessments of our financial condi
tion,” said Sen. Carl Parker, D-Port
Arthur.
A spokesman for Clements said
the Republican governor is willing to
listen to all ideas, but his pledge to
hold spending at $36.9 billion over
the next two years is firm.
Reggie Bashur, Clements’ press
secretary, said, “We have compas
sion and sensitivity for the Texas
taxpayer who is trying to meet his
monthly bills and his mortgage.
“What they’re talking about — what
critics are talking about — is a $5.8
billion tax increase. We don’t think
Texas taxpayers can afford, nor do
we think they want, that type of tax
increase.”
In a presentation led by Sen.
Hugh Parmer, D-Fort Worth, Dem
ocrats blasted what they said are
Clements’ plans to cut spending for
public schools, higher education, hu
man services and agriculture.
Parmer said Clements failed to
cover the state’s pressing needs by
insisting on a spending peak at $36.9
billion for the 1988-89 budget years.
