California facing higher Sacramento, calif. (Ap)California's budget deficit has
swelled to a projected $16 billion much larger than had been predicted just
months ago and will force severe cuts to schools and public safety if voters
fail to approve tax increases in november, gov.Jerry brown said saturday. The
democratic governor said the shortfall grew from $9.2 billion in January in part
because tax collections have not come in as christian louboutin shoes for men high
as expected and the economy isn't growing as fast as hoped for.The deficit has
also risen because lawsuits and federal requirements have blocked billions of
dollars in state cuts. "This means we will have to go much farther and make cuts
far greater than i asked for at the beginning of the year,"Brown said in an
online video. "But we can't fill this hole with cuts alone without doing severe
damage to our schools.That's why i'm bypassing the gridlock and asking you, the
people of california, to approve a plan that avoids cuts to schools and public
safety. " Brown did not release details of the newly calculated deficit
saturday, but he is expected to lay out a revised spending plan monday.The new
plan for the fiscal year that starts july 1 hinges in large part on voters
approving higher taxes. The governor has said those tax increases are needed to
help pull the state out of a crippling decade shaped by the collapse of the
housing market and recession.Jerry brown and his wife, anne gust brown turn in
boxes of i'm proposing is not a panacea, but it goes a long way toward cleaning
up the state's budget mess,"Brown said. Democrats, who control the legislature,
have resisted brown's proposed cuts so far this year.Republican lawmakers
criticized the majority party for building in overly optimistic tax revenues. the website "Today's news underscores
how we must rein in spending and let our economy grow by leaving overburdened
taxpayers alone,"Said assembly republican leader connie conway in a statement.
The governor pursued a ballot initiative because republican lawmakers would not
provide the votes needed to reach the twothirds legislative majority required to
raise taxes.Jerry brown and his wife, anne gust brown watch sacramento registrar
of voters employees jennif will deal with it,"Steinberg said saturday. "And we
know that more cuts are inevitable but we will do our very, very best to save
more than we lose, especially for those in need. " Under brown's tax plan,
california would temporarily raise the state's sales tax by a quartercent and
increase the income tax on people who make $250, 000 or more.Brown is projecting
his tax initiative would raise as much as $9 billion, but a review by the
nonpartisan analyst's office estimates revenue of $6.8 billion in fiscal year
201213. Supporters of the"Schools and local public safety protection act of
2012"Say the additional revenue would help maintain current funding levels for
public schools and colleges and pay for programs that benefit seniors and
lowincome families.It also would provide local governments with a constitutional
guarantee of funding to comply with a new state law that shifts lowerlevel

headed for the november ballot is being promoted by los angeles civil rights

scale for nearly all wageearners to help fund schools. Antitax groups and
republican lawmakers say both tax increases will hurt california's economic
recovery.Jerry brown, right, demonstrates the new trick their dog, sutter,

that would kick in automatically if voters reject tax hikes this fall.
