Stand for Children article in the T&G

Front page of today's local section

Encouraging words from some public officials!

The disappointing thing is that the mayor apparently still doesn't understand the foundation budget formula:

"The bizarre thing was, even though we had effectuated savings from our health insurance reforms...because it wasn't new money, they weren't going to recognize it..that means there's no incentive for reforms."

That's one you'll want to take up with the state, Madame Mayor. They set the foundation budget formula.

I heard it several times this spring and had the same reaction. It doesn't exactly trip off the tongue, does it?
