Mass Fiscal Explanation
MassFiscal supports a yes vote in support of fiscal prudence. Since this budget also draws on the state’s stabilization fund (rainy day fund) to temporarily fill budget shortfalls, it is wise to focus on rebuilding it with any net surplus since the fund is a factor in our state’s credit rating.
