FRANKFORT -- Senator Denise Harper Angel, D-Louisville, has filed several amendments to the state budget to meet pressing community needs.
"These are relatively small requests by state standards, but they will do a lot to improve the quality of life in Louisville," Harper Angel said.
The amendments would provide:
á $1 million for the Center for Women and Families to build xxxxx?
á $900,000 for capital improvements for Actors Theatre; and
á $100,000 for the Newburg Library to purchase books.
"Each one of these organizations is important to our city in different ways," Harper Angel said. "I'm hoping state funding can make them a reality."
