SACRAMENTO – Senator Brian Dahle (R-Bieber) commented on the passage of the largest state budget in California’s history.
“This is a massive budget that grows the size of government, without much accountability on how it is spent or the results,” said Senator Brian Dahle. “Californians passed a $7 billion water bond in 2014, and in a year when we need it most, we still haven’t seen one gallon of water. Every dollar spent needs to go to real projects that help Californians, not to consultants or government bureaucrats.”
The budget now goes to the Governor for his signature or veto. The Legislature is expected to debate and pass many trailer bills over the next few weeks that will implement the policies of the budget-in-chief.
