The bill amends the existing law regarding the state budget by specifying new requirements and limitations for supplemental budget requests. It introduces a new paragraph (vii) to W.S. 9-2-1013(d), which outlines the conditions under which the governor or state agencies can make recommendations in a supplemental budget. These recommendations are limited to necessary reductions due to revenue shortfalls, appropriations for human or natural disasters, public welfare emergencies, adjustments to savings, and necessary personnel changes. Additionally, the bill repeals the previous provision regarding the preparation of alternative budgets.

The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2025. The changes aim to streamline the supplemental budget process and ensure that any requests are focused on urgent and essential needs, thereby enhancing fiscal responsibility within the state's budgetary framework.
