Idaho立法者将大部分国家机构预算削减3%, 拒绝接受州长为确保长期财政稳定的短期方案。 Idaho lawmakers cut most state agency budgets by 3%, rejecting governor’s short-term fixes to ensure long-term fiscal stability.

Idaho的联合财政-拨款委员会共同主席为大幅削减国家机构预算辩护,指出需要长期的财政稳定和结构平衡。 Idaho’s Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee co-chairs defended deep budget cuts to state agencies, citing the need for long-term fiscal stability and structural balance. 他们拒绝了州长Brad Little关于一次性转移和临时削减的建议,认为Idaho必须维持在目前的收入范围内。 They rejected Governor Brad Little’s recommendations for one-time transfers and temporary cuts, arguing Idaho must live within current revenues. 委员会对大多数机构实施了3%的削减，明年开始将有进一步削减，尽管医疗补助和惩教部门被豁免。 The committee imposed a 3% cut for most agencies, with additional reductions starting next year, though Medicaid and the Department of Correction were exempt. 在2027年,法院系统可能面临5%的削减。 The court system may face a 5% cut in 2027. 官员警告称，削减可能会延迟税务处理，减少野火响应，并增加监狱成本，而委员会则坚持各机构应利用效率提升来为未来资金提供合理性。 Officials warned cuts could delay tax processing, reduce wildfire response, and increase prison costs, while the committee maintains agencies should use efficiency gains to justify future funding.
