AN ACT ESTABLISHING A CONNECTICUT FAMILIES AND WORKERS ACCOUNT.
This bill directs the Office of Fiscal Analysis to review state spending from the General Fund for the upcoming two-year budget period. The office must identify specific areas where spending has increased by ten percent or more compared to the previous budget cycle. By February 1, 2025, the office will report these findings to the legislative committee responsible for state budgets and appropriations. This process aims to provide the legislature with data on significant spending increases before the next budget is finalized.
