Jindal is using $300M in one-time funds to fix a deficit partially caused by using one-time money. #Lalege will rubber stamp on Friday.

. Jindal also using 1-time funds to fix problem caused by use of 1-time funds. Time bomb for new governor.

Could this effort actually be a fiscal land mine for his successor? Bobby doesn't like either candidate. #Lalege

After Team Jindal finds $500M where will they find the Medicaid funds omitted initially? How about the big TOPS shortfall? #Lalege

No bigger. Team Jindal will just imagine the $500M like they did when they put budget together in session. #Lalege
