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. ¡Sr .1 - ■ ¿ y 7 *- » • • (• i* iV ax, t í •„•■J r.?
