Governor McDonnell informed the legislature that revenues are expected to be $152 million higher than was initially believe just a couple of months ago (WaPo [2]).
For the most part, McDonnell asked that the money be used prudently: $50M to the “rainy-day fund,” $38M to scale back the accelerated sales tax nonsense, and another $38M to get a head start on repaying the VRS loan.
About $19.2M was left without any recommendation – at least from the Guv. If they asked me, there is the little matter about unfilled judges . . .
