2009 Senate Bill 831 ↩

House Roll Call 470: Passed

To appropriate $2.890 billion for all state operations for one-month as an “interim” state budget, in the event legislators are not able to resolve a large gap between how much they would like to spend and how much taxes, fees, and borrowed money they expect the state to take in during the fiscal year that begins on Oct. 1, 2009. The amount is 1/12 the target amount agreed to by the House Speaker and Senate Majority Leader, which includes no money from potential tax increases, but does use federal "stimulus" money (as do all budget proposals for this fiscal year).
