A “fiscally responsible”
Oregon state budget for the
next biennium has been pro-
posed by the co-chairmen of
the Ways and Means Commit-
tee, according to Oregon
House Speaker Karen Minnis
(R-Wood Village), Majority
Leader Tim Knopp (R-Bend),
and Ways and Means Co-
Chairman Randy Miller (R-
West Linn).
“It’s a fiscally responsi-
ble plan that lives within the
state’s means,” they said. The
co-chairmen’s budget, re-
leased by Co-Chairmen Sen.
Kurt Schrader (D-Canby) and
Miller, and Vice Chairman
Sen. Steve Harper (R-Klamath
Falls) provides a total General
Fund and Lottery Fund budget
for the 2003-05 Biennium of
$11.23 billion, including
nearly $5 billion for schools.
“This is a balanced
budget plan,” said Miller,
“that meets our constitutional
obligation to provide for
schools, public safety and
public health, within our exist-
ing resources.
Said Minnis, “I applaud
Sen. Schrader, Rep. Miller,
Sen. Harper and the entire
Joint Ways and Means Com-
mittee for the balanced, bi-
partisan and thoughtful plan
they have developed. While
this budget presents chal-
lenges, the co-chairmen have
shown that we can live within
our means. This is the next
step in the budget process, but
certainly not the last, as the
Legislature continues to refine
this plan in consultation with
the governor.”
Knopp added, “The co-
Chairmen’s budget highlights
the critical importance of re-
forming PERS this session, as
it will allow the Legislature to
redirect at least $160 million
in savings back into schools,
health care, public safety and
other critical services for Ore-
gonians.
The co-chairmen’s budget
clearly shows that we can
manage our resources in these
tough times without having to
ask Oregonians for more of
their hard-earned money.”
