Yesterday the Budget & Policy Center released an analysis of the Governor's supplemental budget proposal that details cuts in health and the environment, education, and economic security. To read the entire report, click here.

Every area of the budget has been affected by the enacted budget cuts and will continue to suffer under the Governor’s supplemental budget proposal. Taken together, the enacted cuts and the Governor’s supplemental budget proposed cuts include a 15 percent reduction in efforts to maintain healthy people and a clean, safe environment.

The tables below detail the budget cuts in the area of healthy people and the environment. These cuts span public and environmental health; child and family services; health insurance access and affordability; and long-term care, developmental disabilities, and mental health. In the following days, we will continue to highlight specific cuts in areas throughout the Governor's budget proposal.
