        Re: 2023 Budget Letters

        Last year the Assembly established two formal processes to accept input from member offices. Your input informs the Subcommittee hearing process and shapes the Assembly’s budget priorities. We have two different processes, one for overall budget priorities and issues and a smaller and more dedicated process for member district priorities. The revenue condition of the state is uncertain at this time. The Legislative Analyst’s Office has recommended the Assembly plan for a growing budget problem, as their revenue projections are overall lower than what was included in the Governor’s budget. So far, actual revenue collections have been closer to the lower LAO numbers, which could mean the 2023-24 budget will not allow for new investments or expenditures. However, to the extent we do have ability for new items this year, please send in your letters so those ideas can be considered if revenues improve in the next four months.

        Below are instructions for member offices on how to submit input for the two processes.
