A state budget is one step closer to being approved and Republicans are slamming the largest state spending plan on record.

The $53.1 billion spending bill increases taxes on sports betting operations, ends a business tax deduction and eliminates the state’s sales tax on groceries. It also spends hundreds of millions on migrant shelters and health care for undocumented citizens. Republican State Senator Don DeWitte says its too much spending and too much revenue enhancement.

The approved budget also grows the state’s child tax credit. It now goes to the House for approval.
