Early yesterday, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger proposed a $125.6 billion election-year budget that would be much different from recent years, and would increase spending on education, health, prisons, and public works, without raising taxes. The plan also includes a multiyear, $222 billion program to build highways, transit systems, waterworks, classrooms, and prison cells, using state and federal money, as well as $68 billion in new state bonds. The borrowing of this money would require approval by voters and the California Legislature. This is the third budget Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is a Republican, has proposed since winning office in the recall election of 2003. Of course, steady growth in the state economy in the past year is allowing the governor to promote new spending for education, social services, and 'long-neglected' infrastructure projectsm, while the "Governator" starts his re-election campaign. This budget would increase general fund spending by $7.7 billion, moving it up to $91.5 billion, which is a jump of 8.4 percent from this year. It also includes $4.3 billion in additional spending on K-12 education and community colleges, and a $2 billion increase for highway projects. The spending money for these things eliminates the planned increases in tuition for thousands of students that attend the University of California and California State University. The Governor would also like the state to allow him to have the power to make budget corrections if necessary. He said, "At a minimum we should restore the authority governors had until 1983, to make budget corrections before they get out of control." Schwarzenegger is currently starting his re-election campaign, and most analysts believe he already has momentum going into the race, and this proposed plan and ideas might further help his chances.
The highest executive authority in the state government of the United States is the Governor of Califronia, whose responsibilities include making yearly "State of the State" addresses to the California State Legislature, submitting the budget, and ensuring that state laws are enforced. Relating to history, The office of "Governor of California" was created in 1850, after California became a formal state in the American Union. Previously, there had been American military governors of the Californian territory, a President of the short-lived California Republic, and numerous Mexican governors, from when California was part of that country. Of course, California became a state, and remians that way today, led by their governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
