In a year in which state revenue dropped significantly, legislators managed to find funds to help small businesses, and they intend to continue the efforts they made in 2020âs special session when this yearâs regular session convenes.
During the 2020 regular session, legislators budgeted conservatively, in accordance with the expected drop in revenue resulting from pandemic closures, and ultimately cut $3.3 billion from the 2020 budget.
âBut in 2019, when the books were finally closed, we collected about $900 million more than we were expecting ⦠and the summer [of 2020] was much more productiveâ than expected, said Rep. Marc Snyder, D-Dist. 18, at a Dec. 22 virtual town hall.
