ARNOLD GLADLY ACCEPTS THE FEDERAL FUNDS


38th California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger
Fresh off a grueling budget battle in his state, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Saturday that if fellow Republican governors threatening to turn down stimulus funds follow through on their pledge, he'd be happy to have their share.
"Everyone has their own way of thinking," Schwarzenegger said of those governors in an interview with POLITICO at the National Governors Association's annual meeting. "I just hope they give me their funding."
Schwarzenegger supports President Barack Obama's $778 billion stimulus, but four Republican governors have said they may reject some of the stimulus funds.
The governor said he was "feeling good" after several late night sessions with California lawmakers trying to pass the budget.
"I think everyone had to stay up late a little bit, but we were able to make it work," he said.
Schwarzenegger signed California's $130 billion budget on Friday. To help make up for a massive shortfall, the budget reduces most of the state's expenditures by 11 percent.
California state employees were also required to take days of unpaid leave from work.

  2. Hi Sumandak,
    Mengenai perkara 20 yang kamu minta melalui blog saya...Dalam simpanan saya memang ada. Cuma takat ini, ia nya maseh dalam bentuk 'hard copy'.
    Nanti lah saya usaha drafkan dalam commputer saya.

    Untuk lapuran menyeluruh, ia nya mengandungi 10 keping.
    Saya boleh summarize senipis yang boleh tanpa mengkompromikan kualiti isi kandungan nya.

    Kalau dikira, syor-syor dalam 20 perkara tersebut agak sensitif dan mungkin juga sulit.
    So bila siap nanti saya kirimkan melalui e-mail. Ok kah?
    Thanks and salam
