MAJOR PROGRAM CHANGES Back to Top
  • The budget includes proposals to help reduce the 2008-09 Proposition 98 Guarantee to the minimum level by eliminating the $39.8 million cost-of-living adjustment included in the Budget Act of 2008 for Apportionments and defers $230 million in payments from January and February, 2009 to July, 2009. The deferral does not reduce program spending in the current year.
