Bourne Says Stopgap Budget Good For Now, But More Needs to Be Done

The stopgap budget is by no means a full budget, nor should it be treated that way, but this budget does help in key areas and services offered in Christian County and the surrounding areas. Representative Avery Bourne, Representative of the 95th District, said that this stopgap is certainly not perfect, but it can help a lot for the next 6 months for road construction and education.

Bourne said to remember that this stopgap is not going to keep the state going for the next full year, but should be used as a stepping stone until a new budget can be finalized, passed, and make a difference in the state.

More information about Bourne and the issues she's covering can be found at repbourne.com. Bourne was recently a guest on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
