Citing an improved fiscal outlook since his original state budget proposal in January, Governor Jerry Brown unveiled his revised $124 million spending plan Thursday which rolls back original cuts meant for schools and child care, but keeps other controversial cuts intact. The amended budget plan provides an additional $1.5 billion in general fund spending – most of which will go toward K-12 education. Brown is also dialing back a plan to cut a half-billion dollars for child care for low-income families.
