State continued from page 1 people, especially since the pro grams could suffer cuts in the next biennium. In a letter to lawmakers, Kulongos ki said he would support the bill only if a long-term plan was established alongside the short, five-month fix. “The recession has already caused us to dig a very deep budget hole,” Kulongoski said in the statement. “It seems to me, the last thing we need now is more digging.” State Rep. Pat Farr, R-Eugene, said he that isn’t hap py with the short-term plan, but that it is necessary so programs facing cuts will not lose funding and disap pear. If the programs were dissolved, he said, legislators would have to start from scratch to re-create them. For many, the short-term plan is the lesser of two evils. “I wish we didn’t have to go there, but we do,” Farr said. Statewide health and police serv ices suffered major hits after Mea sure 28’s failure, as legislators made promised cuts. The measure, which failed last month, would have restored funding to many essential services via a hot ly disputed income-tax increase. Just days after Measure 28 failed, state police officials announced that nearly 300 state police troopers, forensic scientists and other staff would be cut to offset their share of the $310 million shortfall. Police offi cials have said the cuts in forensic staff would force prosecutors to inves tigate only the most serious crimes. The Oregon Department of Hu man Services’ budget suffered 090 million in cuts, resulting in total losses of $140 million to the depart ment since the beginning of 2002. Medicaid was also slashed for about 9,000 seniors and disabled people. Other health services were cut, too. Oregon State Rep. Floyd Prozans ki, D-Eugene, said the fallout of cuts to health and human services drasti cally affected the most needy — those who will likely die without care. “We’ve got some individuals who are really at risk with life and death,” he said.
