Gov. Bevin gives his side of his tax/budget bills veto Kentucky's financial future requires tough decisions. - KY GOV. MATTHEW BEVIN The opinions expressed below are those of the writer, Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin, who explains his vetos on Monday, April 9, 2018. By Governor Matt Bevin For many months, we have been working to resolve the toughest financial crisis Kentucky has ever faced, a crisis that began many years ago and that previous governors and legislators either negligently handled or ignored. It is now snowballing out of control. Nothing about this process has been easy. That does not, however, take away from the present reality that we are facing, or from the difficult decisions that must still be made. On Monday, I vetoed both the budget and tax bills. By failing to significantly reduce the pension debt, while also increasing our overall spending, the legislature is proposing to continue Kentucky's dangerous fiscal habits by making promises to our citizens that we already know we cannot keep. Have we not learned our lesson? These tax and budget bills suggest that we have not.
