Corbett Releases FY 2012 Budget
Governor Tom Corbett today presented his 2012-13 budget to the General Assembly, asking legislators to "continue the path of fiscal restraint and to encourage free enterprise for a more prosperous Pennsylvania."
"Today I bring before you a budget grounded in difficult realities but framed in the optimism that we are solving our problems,'' Corbett said. "Once again, revenues do not match mandated, escalating costs. That means we must continue the course bravely charted by this assembly in the year just passed.''
The $27.14 billion proposal would close a projected revenue shortfall of more than $700 million and reduces spending by more than $20 million.
CAAP has placed budget documents on the Advocacy page of the CAAP website. More documents and budget analysis will be posted as they become available.
