Senator Tom Carper @SenatorCarper

As a former State Treasurer and a recovering Governor, I'd like to remind my colleagues that, unlike the federal government, states actually have to balance their budgets and start their new fiscal years on time. Those of us in Washington would be wise to follow suit. — PolitiTweet.org

Some of my Republican colleagues like to say that the dire straits so many states find themselves in is a result of "poor management." Again: not true. Fiscally responsible, well-managed states like Delaware with substantial rainy day funds are feeling the strain. — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that states and local governments have to balance their budgets means that governors, state legislatures and local officials have had no choice but to make deep cuts that will inevitably hurt the ability of all of our communities to recover. https://t.co/nOdv19TYIQ — PolitiTweet.org
