Following the money...

I've got this in the report of the Standing Committee on Business, but I wanted to give it its own space:
Senator Moore's comments tonight were sobering. That $14 million is very much being counted on to fill the large hole in the FY10 budget, and if it doesn't come through, we are in some very serious trouble. Any money that we don't get from that gets added to the $1.2 million deficit that we're already heading into the budget cycle carrying.
As the Senator commented that we were probably not going to get the entire $14 million, we need to get on this at the state level. This is very much an active issue at the State House right now, and we've got to weigh in to save what we can.
