Financing the Future of the Golden State

June 18, 2008

Once again, California faces severe budgetary crises. As policymakers debate an acceptable solution, California residents continue to witness the erosion of public services. Should schools and healthcare providers, who already face critical shortfalls, be forced to cut more and risk further decline in their quality of services? And with our state facing increased gridlock, should transportation funding be cut? How will California remain a Golden State without a significant investment in its future?  How will we maintain the quality of life that Californians have come to expect? How will the sixth largest economy of the world fare in the next few years as it grapples with diminished funding sources? This lecture will focus on these and many related questions, as we begin to embark upon a new fiscal year in July 2008.

More information will follow at a later date.
