Kentucky Senate budget chair questions politics in budget forecast
Original: Kentucky Senate budget chair questions whether politics are influencing budget forecast
The chair of the Kentucky Senate's budget committee has raised concerns that political considerations may be shaping the state's official budget forecast. The questions point to tensions within state government over the numbers that will guide spending decisions. It is not yet clear what response the forecast's authors have given or whether the claims will affect upcoming budget negotiations.
