FUNDS/FUNDING: Relative to finances of the state (OR SEE FISC NOTE GF RV)
HB 599 revises Louisiana's state finance laws, primarily focusing on the Budget Stabilization Fund. The bill modifies the types of state revenues, including excess general funds and certain mineral revenues, that are deposited into this fund. It also increases the maximum balance allowed in the Budget Stabilization Fund from four percent to seven and a half percent of the state's previous year's total revenue. Additionally, it clarifies how specific mineral revenues are categorized for other state funds and repeals some existing revenue dedications and treasury accounts.
