In March 2019, the state quietly postponed $1.7B in Medicaid payments from one fiscal year to the next. That was not known to legislators at the time or factored into the 2019-20 budget, which was therefore out of balance from the moment it passed. https://www.empirecenter.org/publications/cuomos-1-7b-medicaid-mulligan/ …https://twitter.com/melissadderosa/status/1311014923158290432 …
The state eventually "closed" the resulting deficit in part by repeating the postponement tactic with $1 billion worth of Medicaid payments in March 2020. https://www.budget.ny.gov/pubs/archive/fy21/enac/fy21-enacted-fp.pdf#page=140 …pic.twitter.com/UwoQiuvE4L
As for the 2020-21 budget, it was "balanced" by literally and repeatedly inserting "TBD" (for "to be determined") into key areas of the financial plan, including Medicaid and school aid. https://www.budget.ny.gov/pubs/archive/fy21/enac/fy21-enacted-fp.pdf#page=20 …pic.twitter.com/iMFpvcb4LH
The governor was empowered to fill in those blanks later, with a mix of federal aid, borrowed money and spending cuts. The fiscal year is almost half over, and that still hasn't happened.
My point being that @annagronewold is not the one who needs lectures about responsibility.
@melissadderosa @RichAzzopardi is this true? Cant be
