This bill version removes approximately 200 pages of itemized revenue sources and federal program funding detail from the preamble, totaling over $95 billion across state revenue lines, federal grants, and departmental appropriations, while leaving the top-line budget totals ($60.7 billion state funds, $30.5 billion federal funds) unchanged. The deletions span every major department—Agriculture, Children and Families, Education, Health, Human Services, Labor, Law and Public Safety, Transportation, Treasury, and Veterans Affairs—and remove itemization of tax revenues (major taxes subtotal $28.9 billion), miscellaneous fees and recoveries ($4.3 billion), federal Medicaid and social service programs ($21+ billion), infrastructure grants (Clean Water $217M, Drinking Water $262.5M), and professional licensing board appropriations ($16.7M). The changes appear to be a wholesale restructuring of how the budget presents its revenue assumptions and federal funding sources, consolidating or relocating line-item detail that previously appeared in the preamble, rather than substantive elimination of programs or funding, though the removal of this granular transparency may affect legislative and public oversight of how the $91.2 billion budget is composed and allocated.
