Provides for the establishment of a biennial budgeting system for the state of New York replacing the state annual budget process

S 2221 would change New York's state budget process from an annual cycle to a biennial one, requiring the governor to submit a single budget covering two fiscal years instead of one per year. This affects state agencies (which must provide budget estimates to the governor), the legislature (which receives and reviews the biennial budget), and the judiciary (which must submit its financial needs by December 1 annually). The bill amends constitutional provisions to require biennial budget submissions by February 1 following gubernatorial elections, with the budget detailing expenditures and revenues for the next two years. It also modifies the rule that funds must be spent within three years of appropriation. The change aims to create longer-term budget planning by state government.
