Via #Democrats HUGE: Governor #GavinNewsom has balanced #California’s budget—bringing its structural deficit down to $0 through 2028. California’s updated budget includes a record $5 billion for education priorities such as recruiting and training teachers, $100 million to help wildfire survivors rebuild their homes, and a 50% tax cut for new small businesses. “California is proof that fiscal discipline and progressive values go hand in hand,” said Gov. Newsom. “We’re balancing the budget, eliminating deficit, cutting spending, and building reserves—all while protecting healthcare, education, and essential services for Californians.” This is what responsible, compassionate leadership looks like. . https://ift.tt/nrlLita
