Veteran Washington 14th District State Representative Norm Johnson thinks a balanced budget that increases funding for education without hurting other important programs can be achieved.  The Republican legislator says the state is estimated to have nearly three billion dollars in additional revenue this biennium, and he agrees with Senate budget writer Andy Hill’s desire to look at what the state already has before turning to new taxes.  Johnson adds if there are cuts, they need to occur across the board rather than being concentrated in one area.
