The Funds of Colorado Planned Parenthood in the middle of $ 1.2 billion for the Crisis Budget Aviation

The Democrats of Colorado approved millions of Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood during a special legislative session last week, even if the State faces a projected budget deficit of up to 1.2 billion dollars.

The chief minorities of the Colorado Chamber, Rose Pugliese, said that the Democrats had participated in the special session last week with the mentality: “Do not let a good crisis get lost”, because the legislators have directed millions of people to Planned Parenthood while the State faces a budgetary gap of $ 750 million.

Meanwhile, Colorado Democrats have pushed Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood and health insurance subsidies funded by the tax credit while postponing reductions in substantial expenditure to the Governor. The projected total loss of income after President Big Beld Act (HR-1) by President Donald Trump (HR-1) is closer to $ 1.2 billion, but under the Rights note of the taxpayer’s taxpayer, the State is only authorized to spend up to a certain ceiling.

“Instead of prioritizing the appropriate role of the government government … We now favor other entities outside the government of the state and we ensure that they have funding,” said Pugliese. “In my district, most people do not want their money to go. But the biggest problem is … we do not take care of our own house before taking care of the houses of others.”

The Republicans argue that the Democrats used the adoption of HR-1 as a political coverage to rush into a special session, even if the joint budget committee told legislators in June to expect a high-turn budget deficit during the next budgetary cycle.

The Democrats of Colorado, for their part, blame the Republicans in Washington, DC, for the state deficit. The legislator authorized $ 4.4 million in state Medicaid reimbursements to Planned Parenthood via SB 25B-2, which obliges Medicaid to intervene with reimbursements for reproductive health care providers, to cover the reduction of HR-1.

When HR-1 entered into force in July, he immediately prohibited the use of Federal Medicaid funds at Planned Parenthood for a year. The law has also introduced more strict Medicaid rules, including more frequent eligibility controls, new work requirements and stricter registration standards.

“The Democrats of Colorado have taken up the parts of the Big Budget of the Republicans of Trump and Washington in a responsible manner, which one of the members of the Congress delegation could have arrested,” said Democrat president Julie McCluskie in a statement. “Their bill gave companies massive tax reductions that have exploded a billions of dollars in our budget. We have adopted a balanced approach that has closed corporate tax gaps, established a process to reduce certain expenses and used some of our rain economies to protect the financing of health care, roads and education.”

Since the Colorado tax system uses rolling compliance, it automatically adopts changes to the federal tax code, causing immediate deficit in state income.

But the budget battle is far from over, Pugliese warned. The legislators have left around $ 300 million in discounts for Governor Jared Polis to offer in the coming weeks, paving the way to another series of negotiations on programs that will bring the weight of discounts.

“And in the latest budget cycle, the House Republicans had proposed nearly $ 1 billion in spending that could be reduced in our budget,” said Pugliese. “And of course, none of these amendments made the budget.”

“I think the general theme is that we have spent money that we did not have, and now our budget deficit is more important,” she added.
