SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Automatic reduction in general fund appropriations by Governor. Whenever general fund revenue collections for a period of 6 months or more show that year-to-date revenue growth is in excess of 1 percent below the official estimate upon which the appropriation act is based for such fiscal year, the Governor shall institute an across-the-board percentage reduction in general fund appropriations to all executive branch agencies, which shall equal at least one-half of the revenue shortfall. Such action shall be communicated to the chairmen of the money committees within 5 days of its adoption.
