As Chair of the Assembly Transportation Committee, I will continue to work diligently towards an innovative and comprehensive plan to address our state’s most critical transportation needs.

Editors Notes;

The $117.5 billion general fund budget passed by the Legislature relies on different revenue projections than Brown proposed last month. The Legislature’s projections are about $2.3 billion higher than Brown’s.

By passing the budget Monday, although unfinished, they do not have to give up their pay and will revisit it in the near future.
