House Assistant Minority Leader James Ruchti, D-Pocatello, said his caucus had a discussion today about ideas that are being kicked around on transportation. “We made it really clear to our caucus, this is not a deal, this is just the beginnings of some conversation,” Ruchti said. “If the deal involves using general funds, our obvious concerns are, How do you make up for any hole in the general fund that’s created? We just cut education budgets. … Statutorily, we’ve committed our increased future revenues,” to everything from personal property tax relief to budget stabilization fund deposits.
