Time for House Dems to Get Off the Pot!By Republican Yankee, Section News
Andy Dillon says: Do as I say not as I do as budget clock keeps winding down.
"We are facing a budget shortfall this current fiscal year in excess of $500 million and next year's is in excess of $3 billion. Bottom line: We have a lot of work to do...
"We did this in anticipation of the looming budget crisis and the need for us to roll up our sleeves and get to work immediately." An interesting quote. Anyone know where it comes from? Anyone know who said it? Anyone know when? Well, maybe I can help. This is a quote from the January 10, 2007 Michigan House of Representatives Journaly by Andy Dillon. If Dillon and the House Dems have rolled up their sleeves, you've got to wonder what they were planning to stick their hands into. At this point seems they are more ready to dive into things that come out of committees and more likely to dive into things that come out of a bull. And yet Dems still have the tenacity to accuse Bishop and the Republican Senate for holding up the process. Is it not true that the Senate has now passed two sets of budget bills over to the house? So what's the deal? Opposing a massive tax increase (which the majority of Michiganders also oppose by the way) is nothing short of good representative government. It's not obstructionism. So it's up to the House Dems now. They've been crowing and crying that the budget needs a tax hike to get balanced. Well here's your chance. The clock is ticking and it's time to "roll up your sleeves", put the people's money where your mouth is, and get this over with.
