Newsom unveils revised budget plan The State of California

    • News

Governor Newsom announced a revised budget plan this morning, acknowledging a $28 billion deficit. However, the true deficit could be closer to $45 billion.

This proposal includes significant cuts to both one-time and ongoing spending, with a reduction in state operations and the elimination of 10,000 unfilled positions. Newsom also aims to preserve major initiatives and safety net programs while implementing necessary cuts. For a better understanding of the new budget proposal, KCBS Radio's Bret Burkhart and Patti Reising were joined by Chris Hoene, the Executive Director at the California Budget & Policy Center, a non-partisan research and analysis non-profit.
