Georgia had a legislation led by Republican, while Bourdeaux was conducted by the Office for Budget and Evaluation in Senate Georgia from 2007 to 2010. Bourdeaux played an advisory role to State Senate Georgia in budget balance during the 2008 economic fall.
“I was the director of the Senate Budget and Assessment Office in Georgia Great recession“Bourdeaux said.” I assisted in Georgia State to balance my budget during the worst fiscal crisis in modern memory. One message coming out of it is that it can be done. I mostly worked with Republican guidance to balance the budget. But when we did this, these budgets that brought a wide and two -sided majority. So this can be done through our regular democratic processes. I want to bring that sensibility to what we do here in Concord. “

“We have just experienced a rather serious inflation, and it was partly fueled by a deficit in a growing debt,” Bordeaux said.
“We currently have $ 36 trillion dollars only based on our current path. The congress budget office thinks we will add another $ 25 trillion to that,” she said. “We spend more on only interest on debt than we spend on national defense, more than we even spend on Medicare. It really starts to put a lot of pressure on the many big priorities we have for this country. It is extremely important that we now deal with it.”
