Overview of the Governor's Budget 1994-95

January 1, 1994 - The 1994-95 Governor's Budget recognizes that the two-year budget plan adopted last June has been undermined by the continuing stubborn state recession. Faced with an $8 billion budget funding gap for 1993-94, the Legislature and Governor adopted a two-year plan to achieve a balanced budget in 1994-95. That plan now is $4.9 billion out of balance based on the state's current revenue and spending trends identified in the 1994-95 Governor's Budget.

Overview of the Governor's Budget 1993-94

January 1, 1993 - As has been the case in each of the past four years, the 1993-94 Governor’s Budget recognizes a substantial decline in the state’s fiscal fortunes. The continuing state recession has once again undermined the state’s current-year spending plan, and will force the Legislature and the Administration into more painful choices as they struggle to balance the budget for the 1993-94 fiscal year. Even without attempting to provide for a prudent reserve, this task will require spending cuts or revenue increases conservatively estimated at $8.6 billion over the next 18 months. Given the magnitude of actions already taken in recent years, resolving this year’s fiscal crisis requires a fundamental rethinking of governmental responsibilities in California.
