Stronger fiscal notes for costly bills

Before a committee votes, the Fiscal Analysis Division must get a fiscal note for any bill that changes costs or revenue by more than $2,000. It must also get a fiscal note for any bill that increases state prison terms or makes parole or probation from state prison less likely. Each fiscal note must estimate changes in appropriation authority, fiscal liability, or state revenue, and, if possible, forecast future two-year periods. Affected state agencies prepare these estimates unless another law or a joint rule says otherwise. Bills that deal only with the Governor’s proposed Executive Budget do not need a fiscal note. These rules take effect July 1, 2025.

Clear fiscal impact lines on bill summaries

Every bill summary must now include clear lines about money effects. For local governments, it must say may have a fiscal impact, no fiscal impact, or increases or newly provides jail or detention terms. For the State, it must say there is an effect, no effect, or that the bill contains an appropriation that is in the Executive Budget, is the Executive Budget, or is not in the Executive Budget. Legislative Counsel must consult the Fiscal Analysis Division to prepare these lines. They must also update the summary if an amendment adds an appropriation or removes all appropriations. These changes take effect July 1, 2025.
