In January, revenues were short by $40 million or 33% compared to what was expected in the lasted projections done in November 2016.
This is a massive shortfall for one month.
In March, legislators will get a new revenue forecast to do their final budgeting.
It now makes sense why there is such a hard push to raise so many taxes by Republicans.
They know things are not getting any better, and they may be getting worse.
