From Bluegrass Politics:
The statement: “Governor Steve Beshear failed to properly manage the budget and now we have a $166 million budget hole to fill this year.”
— Senate President David Williams, in a March 14, 2011, e-mail to supporters of his campaign for governor
The ruling: Mostly false
The facts: There is a shortfall in the state Medicaid budget this year, but Democratic Gov. Steve Beshear isn’t responsible for most of it, as Republican gubernatorial hopeful David Williams claimed.
