A STATE BUDGET THAT WOULD LEAVE NEBRASKA WITH A RECORD AMOUNT OF UNSPENT MONEY HAS PASSED THROUGH A COMMITTEE VOTE.
THE BILL WOULD LIMIT SPENDING TO A THREE-POINT-ONE PERCENT INCREASE.
IT MAKES SOME CHANGES TO THE INITIAL 2023-2025 BUDGET, BUT HOLDS TO RECOMMENDATIONS MADE BY GOVERNOR JIM PILLEN EARLIER THIS YEAR.
IF THE PLAN PASSES AND IS FOLLOWED, MORE THAN ALMOST 575-MILLION DOLLARS WOULD BE IN THE STATE GENERAL FUND WITH ANOTHER 904-MILLION IN A CASH RESERVE FUND.
DEBATE IN THE NEBRASKA LEGISLATURE WILL START TUESDAY.
