An Act amending the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.177, No.175), known as The Administrative Code of 1929, in Commonwealth budget procedures, providing for general appropriation bill timeline.

SB 199 is a procedural bill amending Pennsylvania's 1929 Administrative Code to establish specific deadlines for passing the state budget. It requires legislators to introduce the general appropriation bill within six weeks of the Governor's budget submission, mandates both legislative chambers to pass a complete budget by the second week of May, and sets a June 15 deadline for final passage, with backup voting rules if one chamber passes a budget before the deadline. This bill directly affects the Pennsylvania General Assembly by streamlining the budget process. As a procedural measure, it does not change state spending policies but sets clear timelines for legislative action. The bill is pending referral to the State Government committee as of January 29, 2025.
