Extra money in the Colorado House?
Colorado's proposed budget for the fiscal year starting July 1 should be introduced in the House today. The Rocky reports, "Lawmakers have to decide the best way to spend the extra money voters approved in Referendum C." (Emphasis added by me.)
I'm sure I'm not the only voter under the impression that the Ref C money is already tied up in various essential state programs. If so, the Rocky's usage of the word extra either exposes rightwing bias or journalistic expediency. Or both. Or I'm missing something. Which happens. Lots.

The right wing bias of the Rocky is well known so most readers [I hope]take it with a grain of salt. As you write, there is no extra money. 'C' just plugs a few holes for a while.
