The Governor transmitted his proposed 2024-25 budget plan to the Legislature, as required by the Constitution, on January 10, 2024. Almost all proposals incorporated into California state budgets are provided online or discussed in legislative hearings well in advance of enactment.
This page provide links to key sources of official budget information, to be updated through June 2024. Notices of updates will be provided occasionally via my LinkedIn and Threads feeds.
