Trauma Center Funding

Here's a thought. I think the governor is right in his assessment that current GIF money is not the way to fund the Trauma Center. But, that doesn't mean that the 2009 legislature couldn't earmark their GIF money for that purpose. It would surely meet the standard of a statewide project. I know that is two years from now and a lot can happen in the interim, but I believe most people agree that a Trauma Hospital and system of care is much needed. It's just a thought at this point, but one that should be explored.
