Arizona spending is out of control... |
| Arizona Budget Deficit is Nation's Worst |
| A new report from the Center on Budget and Policy
Priorities projects Arizona's 2009 budget deficit
to be the largest in the U.S. as a percentage of
the overall budget. |
| Arizona's fiscal year 2009 budget deficit, estimated
to be $1.7 billion, is 16.2% of the overall budget.
As a percentage of the budget, Arizona has the largest
deficit in the country. California's $16 billion
deficit is 15.4% if its budget. |
| Combined with the current year deficit of $1.2
billion, Arizona's $3 billion budget problem is
staggering. |

As a small business owner, Doug Sposito knows that controlling
State spending isn't rocket science. It's common sense.
With the State of Arizona having the worst budget crisis in
the country, it's important that we elect leaders who know
how the economy works, understand business principles, know
how to restrain spending, and who can balance a budget. |
| Let's put Arizona back in business. |
| Let's elect Doug Sposito. |
