I was glad when the House Democratic Caucus released its suggested budget reductions for FY2011 last week that they provided the exact list of cuts by program area.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to completely reconcile the lists of possible budget reductions from the Governor, the Senate Republicans and the House Democrats.  That said, below is a chart showing the amounts that each group proposes cutting, by functional area (this does not include fund transfers, payment delays or tax compliance initiatives).

The House Democrats make their own comparison between their cuts and the Governor’s 6.3 percent across-the-board cuts.  The numbers they cite as the Governor’s do not match the numbers that the Governor’s office released last month.
