Nixon Expected to Announce More Cuts Thursday Morning

From KMIZ:

Governor Nixon is set to announce significant cuts to next year's budget Thursday morning.  

About $350 million will be slashed from the 2011 fiscal year budget.  Budget Director Linda Luebbering told ABC 17 News Wednesday the cuts will be made across the board, but could not specify which departments would take the hardest hit.    

The planned announcement comes after lawmakers already cut about $500 million from the budget during the legislative session.
