A state budget is constitutionally mandated. It is literally the most important job of a Senator – to pass a state budget.

At one event Jay Lane says he is OK without a state budget, then a few weeks later he says we need one.

Did his advisors correct him on this?

Does he just say what he thinks his audience wants to hear at the time?

Why is Jay Lane lying?

The proof:

Jay Lane says he is OK with a continuing resolution instead of a state budget.

Jay Lane says we definitely need a state budget a few weeks later.

(Something as important as the state budget shouldn’t be a talking point to be flip flopped on. One would hope that our next Senator would not just be OK with a continuing resolution instead of a state budget.)
