Budget Quotes
We are a can-do agency, used to getting it all done even if we have to make some tough decisions. But we are seeing hits in all budget areas, so it's not like there's a whole lot of extra money that we can take for travel planning. We're hoping to get some direction in how to prioritize, given our funding level.

Baptist Quotes
we still care very deeply about funding of CBF national ministries through the Baptist State Convention. While we're gratified that funds for CBF national will be retained and will grow by one half percent, we are concerned about the signal it sends that somehow these contributions are second class or invalid or not legitimate. In the past, CBF-related churches have been considered full partners in the Baptist State Convention. We hope this doesn't signal a move toward exclusion.
-
Adequate Quotes
We asked the state that the funding be adequate and on time, and they've managed to do that. But we also need the funding to be predictable and sustainable, and we always worry until they establish a formula and commit themselves to supporting it that there are going to be surprises from year to year.
-
Call Quotes
We commend House Appropriators for recognizing technology as critical to our nation's educational needs by partially restoring EETT funding to $300 million. Unfortunately, $300 million is just a start. We call upon the Senate to seek nothing less than the same level as allocated this year.

Additional Quotes
We would like to extend our appreciation to the cooperating landowners and the agencies that have provided additional funding to make this project a success so far, ... We are also looking for landowners who are interested in funding for projects to repair the shoreline of Elm Lake itself, or its many tributaries that may have been damaged by heavy rains in May and June.
-
Both Quotes
We need to do much more than pay lip service to port security as the Republican-controlled Congress is now doing. We must put in place both the funding and the personnel resources to ensure that all cargo containers entering U.S. ports, especially high-risk ports, are screened for radiation and other dangerous substances.
-
Access Quotes
We also have to, based on limited funding that we have, ensure that our money is allocated (in a way) that will make the most difference the quickest. What we're seeing for some of these smaller markets like Newport News or Manchester, N.H., is the proliferation of regional jets that has resulted in both add volume and greater access to these markets.

Budgets Quotes
There are school budgets that are being voted down around New Jersey even though they're efficient budgets, they're good budgets, because people can't see straight regarding property taxes. It has become such a burden that the way education funding has played its way out in the state as a result of the various Abbott decisions that we've got a real crisis on our hands.
-
Again Quotes
When we visit with Congressional offices, we are told again and again about the historic doubling of biomedical research funding that has occurred in the last decade. But for the as many as 7.5 million Americans with psoriasis, this doubling of funding at NIH is a cruel joke, because psoriasis research has actually been decimated during this time. People with psoriasis, and their loved ones, must step up and make their voices heard to get this reversed, or this incurable and often debilitating disease will continue to devastate lives for generations to come.

Creeping Quotes
We've been creeping up and doing better and better each year, but when we get MCAS back I will not be surprised if we've stalled somewhat and we're not meeting our targets, ... You get what you pay for and when all is said and done and all these years of level funding will show that we're not meeting AYP (state standards).
-
Achievement Quotes
While the governor's proposed funding increase is truly appreciated, it still leaves us short of being able to fully maintain the services we provide to our students, let alone being able to expand opportunities for our students. It's discouraging to have to recommend cuts at a time when student achievement is increasing, but we must balance expenses with revenues.

Basically Quotes
The reason it wasn't built out to five lanes in the beginning, back in 1990, was basically funding and need. There's probably no need at this point for five lanes in each direction. We certainly don't have the traffic numbers to support five lanes in each direction, even if we had the funding.
