CFA Executive Director Explains COGD Report on WSOY AM
Wednesday, August 17, 2011 5:11 PM
On Wednesday, Center for Fiscal Accountability Executive Director Mattie Duppler Corrao joined
Byers & Companyon WSOY AM to discuss what the 2011 Cost of Government Day Report means for Illinois taxpayers. Illinois has suffered for years under the burden of government taxation and overspending, celebrating a COGD
well after the national averageas a result. Yet despite the explosion of spending and regulation under President Obama, there is hope for taxpayers on the horizon. As Corrao points out, the Ryan budget would bring COGD 18 days earlier through its discretionary spending cuts alone. The entire interview can be found
