A slow but steady economic recovery is generating more tax revenue than many states had anticipated, offering elected officials tantalizing choices about whether to ply voters with tax breaks, boost spending for favorite programs or sock away cash for another rainy day. The Democratic New York Governor wants to tap a surplus to roll back recent tax hikes, despite other Democrats’ ideas for new spending. (AP Photo/Mike Groll)
