2007 Senate Bill 235

House Roll Call 504: Passed

The House-Senate conference report for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2007-2008 Department of Military Affairs budget. This appropriates $129.4 million in gross spending, compared to $122.9 million, which was the FY 2006-2007 amount enrolled in 2006, and $127.8 million proposed by Gov. Granholm (see <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2006-SB-259">Senate Bill 259</a>). Of this, $40.3 million will come from the general fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to the FY 2006-2007 amount of $40.6 million. Like most other most other budgets this one would require the department to reduce administrative costs by 2.5 percent, but reportedly that will cause no layoffs in the department.
