Before you get too involved please realize that these numbers are what the Legislature authorized and the Governor approved, not what California government actually spent during the fiscal year.

The California Constitution codifies the enacted budget as a hard limit with the exception of supplemental emergency expenditures at the Governor's discretion . The Legislature and the Governor treat them as general guidelines. This common disregard for the law was one of the chief reasons that the budget got into a significant structural imbalance under the Davis administration.
