AI Summary

  • Establishes $33,719,000,000 in available general funds for State fiscal year 2013 spending and unpaid obligations.

  • Designates non-discretionary spending items totaling $18,569,138,600: Pensions ($5,100,000,000), Group Insurance ($1,171,185,400), Debt Service ($2,218,000,000), Statutory Transfers ($2,142,000,000), Medicaid ($6,638,953,200), Medicaid backlog ($1,000,000,000), and other unpaid obligations backlog ($300,000,000).

  • Allocates remaining discretionary funds to five House appropriation committees: Elementary & Secondary Education ($6,491,836,794 or 39.830%), Higher Education ($1,978,809,910 or 12.141%), Human Services ($5,087,296,478 or 31.212%), Public Safety ($1,576,088,885 or 9.670%), and General Services ($1,165,014,734 or 7.148%).

  • Makes committee allocations contingent on reducing Medicaid obligations accrual by $2,700,000,000 during fiscal year 2013; failure to achieve this reduction requires increasing Medicaid deductions and reducing committee allocations accordingly.

  • Directs any general fund revenues exceeding estimates to first reduce backlog of unpaid state obligations, with priority given to Medicaid and obligations eligible for federal reimbursement.
