Political Columnist. Leadership & Political Consultant. Former House Minority Leader, 2014-2017 (R-HI). Former State Legislator (D-HI), 2017-2018.
The state budget holds immense importance, acting as a blueprint for how our state allocates resources and reflects its priorities. This financial plan determines funding for crucial services like education, health care, infrastructure and public safety, directly impacting the lives of Hawaii’s residents. In our personal lives, budgeting can be an anxiety-inducing chore that forces us to face our financial realities and the accompanying restrictions. Dealing with the state budget often feels the same. Lawmakers may start the session with lofty ideas and promises for new programs and policies. Still, those proposals won’t be realized until the Legislature’s money committees connect them to a funded line item in the state budget. And that’s why I love the state budget. Seriously. It’s my favorite piece of legislation. #stategovernment #politics #lawmakers

📣 MAJOR! FY25 Budget Update !! 📣 Never wanting to keep MLA members in the dark, we are finally able to share the state of Michigan budget with you (links below for the House Fiscal Agency Conference Reports for the General Omnibus Budget and the School Aid Fund). With little to no advance public review of the budget, in the early morning hours today, the FY25 State of Michigan budget (beginning October 1) has finally passed through the conference committee, the Senate and the House. The budget now awaits the Governor’s signature before the July 1 deadline. (Just as a reminder, she also has line item veto power, so nothing is in stone until she signs.) While we haven’t had time to digest the entire budget, we have highlighted some of the items that we have been watching including (DRUMROLL PLEASE) a $1,000,000 increase to State Aid bringing it to $16,567,700. And while we didn’t get everything we asked for in the budget…your voices were heard and communications with your state legislators made a difference! Advocacy is a full year commitment – it never ends, so keep up the good work. We are #StrongerTogether. MLA will share more details soon on other MLA priorities.

Founder, CEO and Mathematics Lecturer at the Ubuntu Multicultural Centre, A research Assistant, Newport Ward Councillor
***MY FIRST MONTHLY PODCAST ON THE BUDGET** Middlesbrough Council is in a challenging financial position and is facing a £6.3m funding gap. To address the financial challenges, the council is proposing a number of drastic cost-cutting measures: 1. Increase council tax by 4.99%, which would mean an increase of £62.60 for Band A properties. 2. Introduce a £40 annual charge for garden waste collection, which would start in April and continue fortnightly until late November. 3. Reduce staffing levels by around 75 full-time roles. 4. A residents' parking permit charge would be introduced at £25 for the first one and £40 for any additional permits, while NHS workers and official carers would be charged £10. 5. Closing the Captain Cook Birthplace Museum. 6. Make changes to its social care services, The projected overspend largely relates to the cost of providing statutory children’s and adult’s social care. It accounts for 83% of the council's net revenue budget for 2023/24. The council is committed to protecting the services that residents value but says it is necessary to make these difficult decisions to avoid even tougher measures. The council says it has been repeatedly underfunded by the Government and has seen a reduction of 46 per cent since 2013. The council is seeking financial support from the Government, but it is also warning that it may have to issue a section 114 notice if the financial situation does not improve. A public consultation on the proposals will be held from December 21 to January 18, and the full council will vote on the budget in February 28.

The Welsh Government’s 2024-25 budget for Wales, is around £27 billion. This affects things in our everyday lives as it pays for services like healthcare, education, and transport. But where do Members of the Senedd fit into this financial puzzle? Let’s delve into their essential role 👇 It all begins with the Welsh Government presenting its Draft Budget to the Senedd. This is the moment when Members of the Senedd get to assess which services and projects the government is prioritising for the year ahead. Members of the Senedd examine the Draft Budget to see whether it reflects the needs and priorities of people in Wales. They do this by holding evidence sessions with relevant stakeholders and scrutiny sessions with Welsh Government Ministers, to hold them accountable for financial decisions. After scrutinising the Draft Budget for 2024-25, Members of the Senedd have expressed concerns about the Welsh Government’s proposals and asked for changes to be made before the Final Budget is published. Some of the concerns they have raised are: 💷 Whether there is enough funding to protect core frontline services. 👵 The disproportionate impact budgetary decisions will have on the most vulnerable people in society, especially in this ongoing cost of living crisis. 📈 That there is an absence of strategic thinking for funding long-term preventative measures. During today’s debate in the Senedd, Members will voice these concerns and vote on whether to approve the Final Budget. 👀 You can watch it LIVE on our broadcast channel, Senedd TV.
