The 2019-20 Budget: Governor's Proposals for Infants and Toddlers With Special Needs

Feb 28, 2019 - Associated costs would be covered by a combination of Proposition   56 t obacco tax revenues and federal funding for Medi ‑Cal. Notably, state policy currently requires Medi ‑Cal managed care plans to provide such screenings, and thus, some portion of the proposed one million screenings currently occurs and would occur even absent the Governor ’s proposal.

The 2024-25 Budget: State Preschool

Apr 16, 2024 - As such, the state must provide additional Proposition  98 funding for State Preschool in 2024 ‑25 consistent with the collective bargaining and parity agreement.

Jan 13, 2025 - The proposal would then provide a like amount of funding from Proposition  4, the climate bond approved by voters in November 2024.

The 2023-24 Budget: Child Care Proposals

Feb 9, 2023 - High Risk of 2023‑24 Proposition 64 Revenues Coming in Lower Than Governor’s Budget Assumption.

The 2023-24 Budget: Transitional Kindergarten and State Preschool Proposals

Feb 14, 2023 - Delaying the facilities funding provides non ‑Proposition  98 General Fund savings in 2023 ‑24 to address a projected budget problem. In addition, as we discuss in a recent brief , the Governor’s Proposition 98 proposals would create a deficit in 2024‑25, as the state is using about $1.4 billion in one‑time Proposition 98 funding to cover 2023‑24 LCFF costs.
