There sure has been a lot to complain about in this General Assembly session. But SB 143 is the proverbial horse of a different color.
The bill would require accountability in the spending of state tax dollars on local projects. It mandates regular reports during the course of a project and a final report when the work is completed. With every dollar accounted for, it then requires any left over funds to be returned to the state.
It's amazing to think this hasn't been done long before now, but why quibble? I'll take it.
