The executive recommendation for the FY 2002-2003 Department of Education budget. This appropriates $89.4 million in adjusted gross spending (funded from all sources, including state restricted fund and federal pass-through dollars, minus interdepartmental transfers), compared to $996.1 million, which was the FY 2001-2002 amount enacted in 2001, excluding any supplemental appropriations. Of this, $30.1 million will come from the General Fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to $33.9 million. The huge difference in gross funding is because $911 million in federal funds which were included in the FY 2002 Education budget are transferred to the school aid budget in FY 2003.
