Committee on Appropriations
Overview
Appropriates monies for the operation of the state government in FY 2022.
History
The Arizona Legislature adopts a budget for each fiscal year (FY) that contains general appropriations. Article IV, Section 20, Part 2, Constitution of Arizona, requires the General Appropriations Act (feed bill) to contain only appropriations for the different state departments, state institutions, public schools and interest on public debt. Statutory changes necessary to reconcile the appropriations made in the feed bill and other changes are drafted into separate bills known as Budget Reconciliation Bills (BRBs). These BRBs are prepared according to subject area.
Provisions
The tables below indicate GF and other fund (OF) changes for appropriated state agencies for FY 2022 along with major footnote changes (stated in terms of changes to the FY 2022 JLBC Baseline):
