Provide, change, and eliminate appropriations for operations of state government
This bill, known as the omnibus appropriations act, allocates state funds to various government agencies and programs for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 fiscal years. It establishes specific budget limits for employee salaries, wages, and per diems, while also defining how unspent money from previous years is carried over to the current budget. The legislation amends existing laws to clarify financial terms and outlines the process for agencies to request additional funds based on federal grants or specific employee leave payments. Ultimately, the bill provides the necessary financial resources to keep state operations running and sets the spending caps that agencies must follow during the biennium.
