“Our budget is realistic, responsible and balanced,” Alexander said. “It doesn’t rely on nickel and diming families and small business owners to cover increased spending. This plan eliminates billions in waste, fraud and abuse to truly deliver a better product for taxpayers who help fund state government. Issues like corporate welfare, government jobs that are budgeted but not filled, and political handouts have been problems for years and have simply been ignored. We did a deep dive with over 130 hours of public hearings to go line by line, find savings for taxpayers and put tax dollars towards priorities that an overwhelming majority of people in our state share.”
