NOTES

The FY 2018 budget figures are what the legislature approved in 2017 and do not include subsequent reductions from budget withholdings.
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.
The governor's recommendation does not include $40 million in Medicaid reductions planned by the governor which his budget director told reporters he has not yet identified where the cuts would be made. The largest portion of the Medicaid budget comes from the Social Services Department.
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 $1.5 billion that is appropriated for income tax refunds. The administration and legislative staff have decided to not count those funds as appropriations.
The Senate figures for health, mental health and social services reflect changes in which departments would be get funds for existing programs; part of the factor in the deep cut in budget for the Health Department along with a near-corresponding increase in the budget for the Social Services Department.
