Hi Winston, And my state (Nevada) just thumbed their nose at the court and plowed the tobacco settlement into the general fund. They used a bunch of weasel wording to do it. -T Well, I'm surprised you didn't know that only 10% of the allotted money to Nevada went into the fund that Nevada 'plowed' back into the state General Fund. The Nevada total tobacco allotment was split into three areas with the Trust Fund for Public Health(TFPH) receiving 10% of Nevada's total allotment. It wasn't until ten years after the settlement that Nevada appropriated about 30% of the balance in the TFPH to reduce the state budget deficit, a few months later the balance of the principal in the TFPH was reverted to the State Fund. Thus, 90% of the tobacco settlement was used for at almost 10 years according to the Nevada legislature's original intent per two AB's passed in 1999 and the monies in the TFPH were used for the same intent for almost 10 years before being appropriated to cover debt and reversion to the general fund. i.e. what you thought and stated isn't necessarily accurate. -- ...winston msft mvp consumer apps |
