Governor Roberts called the reve­
nue forecast released good news for
Oregonians, and repeated her call that
S68 m illio n be set aside to build an
ending balance o f $200 m illio n . The
remaining additional revenue should
be used to restore critical services in
human serivccs, education and correc­
tions programs that other wise would
have been cut.
“ We cannot continue business as
usual and spend all the money that
comes in,” Governor Roberts said. “ Our
economic ouiltxfk is now strong but
there arc uncertainties lurking: the timber
and salmon protection plans and the
national recession may hurt Oregon’ s
economy further. We must save a sig­
nificant rainy day fund to protect us if
such troubles arise.”
Slate Economist Paul Warner and
the Budget Director Paul Warner com ­
pared the new forecast to the revenue
forecast available in December, when
the Governor prepared her budget.
Under current law, the state w ill
have $163.9 m illio n more than the
economist predicted in December. The
slate is taking in more personal and
corporate income taxes because o f the
healthy economy. Stale agencies also
arc spending less through the end o f the
1989-91 budget period, leaving more
money available in 1991-93.
The Governor is urging the Legis­
lature to repeal the 2-pcrcent. A t the
time she prepared the budget, w hich
incorporated a repeal o f the 2-pcrccnt.
A t the lime she prepared the budget,
which incorporated a repeal o f the 2-
perccnt kicker, the economists predicted
that the kicker fund would be $127
m illion. The May estimate is up by $53
m illio n , to $180 m illio n .
O verall, the state is anticipated to
have $217.1 m illio n ($163.9 under
current law, and $53.1 from the kicker)
more than the G overnor expected in
December, when she o rig in a lly pro­
posed the 1991-93 budget.
