2004 Senate Bill 1065

House Roll Call 448: Passed

The House version of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2004-2005 Department of Education budget. (Note: Gov. Jennifer Granholm’s proposed budget for this department is <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2003-SB-1038">Senate Bill 1038</a>.) This appropriates $112.4 million in adjusted gross spending (funded from all sources, including special state restricted fund and federal pass-through dollars, minus interdepartmental transfers), compared to $113.3 million, which was the FY 2003-2004 amount enrolled in 2003. Of this, $26.4 million will come from the general fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to $29.0 million in FY 2003-2004. The House version authorizes approximately $1.8 million less in gross spending than the governor recommended.
