State Representative Kim LaSata is pleased with this year’s Consensus Revenue Estimating Conference, which is the first economic forecast of the year for the Michigan legislature. She tells us steady, sustainable economic growth will continue based on information presented to the House and Senate Appropriations committees during the recent conference. The report was compiled by the House and Senate Fiscal agencies and the state budget director. It predicts Michigan’s recovery from the recession earlier this decade will continue. LaSata says a “conservative approach to budgeting and diligence in cutting unnecessary spending has resulted in a vigorous economy that is creating jobs and improving the quality of life for Michigan families.” She adds the information presented to the conference will help state lawmakers prepare the next budget.
