7 TACC 2006 Summer Conference Nuts & Bolts: The Appropriation Bill Don Hudson
8 The Appropriation Bill: LAR Submission - the starting point in the process LAR = Legislative Appropriations Request; due August 11, 2006 (make sure you send a copy to TACC) LAR submission is 10% less than the current biennium (last biennium started with a 5% reduction) LAR/Budget Hearing Hearing: October 2, 2006, Austin, time: TBA. Conducted by Legislative Budget Board (LBB) staff and staff from the Governor s Office of Budget, Planning and Policy (GOBPP).
9 The Appropriation Bill: Steps in Legislative Session The initial appropriation bill (base bill, LBB bill, HB 1, SB 1) is introduced in each chamber. Both the House and Senate conduct budget hearings. House Appropriations Subcommittee on Education (2/10) Senate Finance Committee (11/9 & 2/8) Workgroups/Subcommittees meet to discuss budget issues (e.g., proportionality). Mark-up: Full committees receive recommendations from subcommittees and workgroups. Each chamber passes a version of the appropriation bill.
10 The Appropriation Bill: Steps in Legislative Session, continued A conference committee (5 House members, 5 Senators) hammers out a final appropriation bill during the last month of session. The conference committee s version of the bill is sent to each chamber for an up/down vote. The Comptroller of Public Accounts must certify that sufficient state funds are available to fund the appropriations bill. The bill is sent to Governor for signature and/or veto.
11 The Appropriation Bill: Observations about the Legislative Session In a word, the process is fluid. Hearings/Mark-up may be set for a particular day/time and the day/time will be changed at the last moment. Unless Public Community/Junior Colleges are listed first on the agenda, there is no way to know when community colleges will be called before the committee. Conference Committee usually delays higher education decisions until the very end; one of the few discretionary items in the budget. Much of the actual conference committee work is conducted in private meetings. Decisions are announced in public meetings. Because the process is not open, it is critical to keep in contact with your legislators during the conference committee process.
