VIRGINIA PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS STATEMENT ON VIRGINIA'S BUDGET PRIORITIES

Richmond Today, members of the Virginia Progressive Caucus spoke at a press conference regarding the state

budget.

Delegate Patrick Hope (D-Arlington), Progressive Caucus Co-Chairman, said, "The Republican-passed budget

does not reflect the priorities of average Virginians. Hundreds of millions in corporate giveaways and loopholes

are coming at the expense of hiring more teachers and increased class size. Their priorities put our children's

education and our economy at risk, leaving us less prepared to compete in a 21st century global economy."

The House Republican budget diverts general funds toward transportation, and also places its focus on corporate

tax loopholes, tax exemptions for items like yachts and gold, subsidies for a handful of wealthy special interests

such as Amazon, film studios and producers of gas and coal. For the biennium, these represent approximately

$479 million in funds that could be used for Virginia's pressing needs.

$479 million is a figure that reflects missed opportunities in funding. During the biennium, $479 million could be

used to fund any of these priorities:

3,818 police officers, 4,113 firefighters, 4,579 teachers, 10,272 home health workers, 51,099 students in pre-kindergarten, or 181,439 children in the FAMIS program.

Progressive Caucus members noted specific areas where the budgeted funds fail to meet Virginia's needs:

The budget funds yesterday's education system, not tomorrow's."Rather than spend millions of dollars on private school tax credits, we should be repairing the damage done to

public schools since 2009. We are educating more students with fewer teachers and less money. It's time to invest

in education rather than shortchange our children," said Senator Adam P. Ebbin (D-Alexandria), Progressive

Caucus Co-Chair.

The budget eliminates long-term healthcare coverage for many seniors.Delegate Hope said, "Seniors are one of the hardest hit groups in this budget, eliminating long term care fundingfor nearly 4,500 frail and elderly Virginians receiving nursing home care. Kicking our parents and grandparents to

the streets is another example of the wrong priorities for Virginia."

The budget fails to address our transportation crisis.

"Just like last year, the Governor's latest transportation proposal is just another gimmick that represents a drop in a

bucket," said Delegate Scott A. Surovell (D-Fairfax County). "Last year, we accelerated $3 billion of borrowing

to cover a $150 billion project shortage. This year the Governor is proposing $50 million per year to cover a

multi-billion dollar annual shortfall, and stealing it from starved schools, substandard healthcare, hurting colleges,

and a failing safety net to boot."
