Tuesday, May 19, 2020 - Posted by Rich Miller * Click here for a little light reading (2246 pages). This looks like a budget cleanup for this fiscal year, but it also includes some ‘21 approps. …Adding… The Senate Assignments Committee, by the way, popped an approp bill out to the floor today. SB264 is now on 3rd Reading and ready to be amended.

it’s got FY21 approps

Agree with Waffle Fries. This is not just a cleanup. This is a budget bill for 21.
- Bill Brasky - Tuesday, May 19, 20 @ 7:38 pm:
This is the budget.

I don’t know. At first I thought it was nexts years budget but now I think it might be a supplemental budget to this year.
From the bill:
Section 1. “AN ACT concerning appropriations”, Public Act 101-0007, approved June 5, 2019, is amended by changing Section 5 of Article 117 as follows:

I think they are adjusting the current year to make up for a shortfall somehow. They already froze state hiring in a lot of places.
- Chatham Resident - Tuesday, May 19, 20 @ 8:10 pm:
From Article 999:
” This Article and Article 1 through
Article 29.5, Article 134 through Article 139, and Article 164 through Article 166 are effective immediately. Article 30 through Article 133, Article 140 through 163, and Article 167 through Article 174 take effect July 1, 2020.”
So this is both the supplemental for FY2020 and the FY2021 operating budget.

Chatham resident beat me to it.
See the very last article. This is FY20 cleanup and the budget bill for FY21.

FY20 clean up, FY21 budget, and capital approps

==FY20 clean up, FY21 budget, and capital approps==
I confess I didn’t check for the capital appropriations. I only paid attention to the operating budget for my office (Secretary of State).

It also contains COVID appropriations. See article 30. Does anyone know why there is an x in the first section under that article?
- Bill Brasky - Wednesday, May 20, 20 @ 9:18 am:
@Smiles I assume it’s either a placeholder or an error. It’s definitely going to need amended, as there are countless drafting errors throughout.
