Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the State Finance Act. Authorizes moneys to be appropriated from the Budget Stabilization Fund in the following specified circumstances. Provides that, if the Governor exercises powers under the Illinois Emergency Management Agency Act, the public health laws of the State, or the Illinois Constitution to declare a disaster or emergency resulting from a catastrophic event that necessitates government action to protect life or public safety, then, for that fiscal year, moneys may, by a favorable vote of a majority of the members elected to each house of the General Assembly, be appropriated from the Budget Stabilization Fund under separate legislation that describes the nature of the disaster or emergency and contains an appropriation limited to the purposes described in the Governor's disaster declaration or executive order. Provides that, if the employment growth forecast for any fiscal year is estimated to be less than 1%, then, for that fiscal year, moneys may be withdrawn and appropriated from the Budget Stabilization Fund by the favorable vote of a majority of the members elected to each house of the General Assembly. Provides that any amount may be withdrawn and appropriated from the Budget Stabilization Fund at any time by the favorable vote of at least three-fifths of the members of each house of the General Assembly.
