NOTES

The governor's General Revenue recommendations is based on a 5.9 percent increase in General Revenue -- about $140 million higher than projected by legislative budget leaders. The legislature's plan moves some of the governor's spending increases for education from General Revenue to a "Surplus Revenue Fund" that would be established for revenue collections higher than the legislature estimates.
The FY 2014 Appropriation is the amount approved by the legislature and signed by the governor for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2013. It does not reflect subsequent withholdings ordered by the governor.
ALL FUNDS includes state taxes, federal funds, gambling revenue, ear-marked taxes and fees.
GENERAL REVENUE covers only those state funds which the legislature is free to appropriate as it wishes. Some agencies (such as the departments of Transportation, Conservation and Insurance) receive little or no General Revenue. These agencies are funded totally or almost totally from ear-marked taxes and fees.
For higher education, the total funds revenue figure does not include outside funds the universities raise from fees, federal funds, tuition, etc.
Employee benefits cover health insurance, retirement and unemployment compensation benefits for some, but not all employees. Some agencies have separate compensation plans for their workers that are not covered by a statewide benefit program.
The Revenue Department budget does not include more than $1 billion that is appropriated for income tax refunds. The administration and legislative staff have decided to not count those funds as appropriations.
$1.6 billion of the all-funds increase in the governor's budget proposal for the Social Services Department includes funds to raise the Medicaid eligibility to 138 percent of the federal poverty level.
The Governor's Rec. numbers reflect what the governor originally submitted to the legislature in January. It does not include any subsequent adjustments he may have proposed during the course of the legislative session.
