Without cutting services or raising taxes on individuals, Massachusetts House leaders have proposed to increase spending to $47.65 billion in their Wednesday budget recommendation for the 2022 fiscal year. That spending level marks a 2.6 percent increase from the current year’s budget and a 3.9 percent increase from what Gov. Charlie Baker proposed in January, although some lawmakers still have concerns with public education funding levels. Higher-than-expected revenue collections and increased federal health care reimbursements allow for the $1.189 billion bump in spending from this year’s budget, lawmakers said. The state’s revenue picture has improved to a point that is “not a place we thought we would be a year ago,” said state Rep. John Barrett III, D-North Adams, a member of the House Committee on Ways and Means, which released the recommendation.
