Speed Budgeting - Jersey Style

by: Jason Springer

Thu Jun 11, 2009 at 11:00:00 AM EDT



With a difficult task in balancing the budget, many hearings held and testimony taken, the Legislature does not plan to delay things any longer than necessary. Here is the planned schedule for the budget to move through the Legislature to get to the Governor's desk:
Thursday, June 11 - Budget bill introduced

Monday, June 15 - Senate Budget Committee hearing
                              Assembly Budget Committee Hearing

Thursday, June 18 - Votes in the Senate and Assembly on the bill.

And look what's on the agenda in the Assembly Appropriations committee which would seem to confirm the start of that schedule:
A4048 [Roberts, Joseph, J.], NJ Economic Stimulus Act of 2009
That is pending introduction and referral. Maybe they think it's like taking off a band aid.  Try to make it quick and minimize the pain. If they don't pass the budget on the 18th, possible fallback dates could be June 22, 25 or 29th before they come up against the June 30 deadline. When do you think they will pass the budget?
