Robert Adley: JBE Not To Blame For ‘Fiscal Cliff’ [VIDEO]
Former State Senator Robert Adley tells 101.7 / 710 KEEL's Robert J Wright and Erin McCarty that, contrary to statements by State Rep. Alan Seabaugh, Governor John Bel Edwards is not responsible for the state's current economic condition.
Adley tells KEEL listeners that a House subcommittee ignored their own findings after an extensive study showed that Louisiana's "fiscal cliff", as it has been described by Governor Edwards, is the fault of the Bobby Jindal administration.
Adley also accentuated the point that the state budget, which has increased by more than $5 billion over the past four years, is a good thing, because it means that Louisiana is getting more money from the federal government.
