State officials announced Thursday that due to a continued fall in revenues for this fiscal year, each state agency would receive an additional 4 percent budget cut, for a total of 7 percent.
“These midyear cuts are already into the bone at some agencies, and next year’s cuts may go right through the bone unless serious actions are taken,” said Secretary of Finance, Administration and Information Technology Preston L. Doerflinger. He added that while the governor and legislative leaders are seeking solutions, “I’m convinced there are still rank and file legislators who have yet to grasp the seriousness of the challenge at hand … This is a long term problem that will require tough, long term solutions.”
