Government Tuesday, July 3, 2012 Surplus in Ohio grows Kasich says it isn't time to spend any of it. by WKSU's STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT BILL COHEN |
 Reporter Bill Cohen | | |
| Ohio’s rainy day fund is now up to nearly half a billion dollars thanks to higher tax revenues and lower state spending. But Governor John Kasich is resisting calls to distribute some of that pool to local governments and schools. Statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen reports. |
With $235 million recently added to the state surplus, the state has now saved up nearly $482 million. It’s a major improvement from last year when at one point the state government had less than $1.
Democrats and advocates in Columbus are asking the state government to spend some of the rainy-day fund on money-tight cities, schools and social service programs, which were hurt by severe cuts in the local government fund and in state education funding. But Gov. Kasich says Ohio isn’t ready to spend any extra money.
“We are not going to spend this money,” Kasich says. “The idea, ‘Oh now we’re in good shape so let’s just go out and spend’ -- that’s how we got into this trouble.” |
