Gov. Brown proudly signs balanced state budget

Yessir!

Gov. Jerry Brown on Thursday signed into law a new state budget for the fiscal year beginning Monday, calling it a "momentous occasion" for California's finances, which have been on a roller coaster for years.

"We have a balanced budget, not proposed, but actually actualized - the first time in probably a decade or more where the state's finances are in very solid shape," Brown said.

The plan outlines spending for $96.2 billion in the general fund - the state's main checking account, which pays for schools, colleges, health and human services, and public safety - and $49 billion in special funds and bonds.

Decade huh? Before Arnie? That must mean that it was Gray Davis, a Democrat.
