Families have to live within their means, and we should expect our state government to do the same. Since being in the State House, Debbie has voted for balanced budgets every year, cut taxes by $3 billion and reduced debt by over $4 billion. Debbie knows when we apply conservative, fiscal principles to the budget, and refuse to give priority to established special interest groups, we can balance our budget in a way that still provides for the needs of our citizens.
