Fiscal Analysis
The bill would make supplemental appropriations, reductions in appropriations, and provide direction and adjustment authority regarding appropriations for the 2024-25 biennium.
Methodology
According to the Comptroller of Public Accounts, the bill's provisions would result in a net reduction of $10,468,571,271 to General Revenue-related funds available for certification. This amount does not include the appropriation to the Foundation School Program, as it was already accounted for in the 2026-27 Biennial Revenue Estimate.The appropriation of $1,795,158 from GR Account 5025 Lottery and the increase of $40,454,048 to GR Account 0469 Compensation to Victims of Crime are not included in the net change of funds available for certification since the balance of these accounts are not used for certification purposes.This legislation would create or recreate a dedicated account in the General Revenue Fund, create or recreate a fund either in, with, or outside of the Treasury, or dedicate or rededicate a revenue source. The dedication included in this bill, unless created by a constitutional amendment, would be subject to funds consolidation review by the current Legislature.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
