Introduced

To authorize an “omnibus” state government budget for the fiscal year that begins on Oct. 1, 2015, except for education spending. This would appropriate $37.9 billion for all state departments, compared to $34.4 billion the previous year. This reflects the executive budget recommendation for the 2015-2016 fiscal year. House Bill 4316 and Senate Bill 201 would appropriate money for public schools, colleges and universities. Spending in both bills comes to $53.869 billion, or slightly less when adjusted to reflect interdepartment transfers, of which $22.6 billion is federal money.
Referred to the Committee on Appropriations
