HB 1363

Joint Budget Committee. Under current law, the general fund reserve requirement is equal to 15% of the amount appropriated for expenditure from the general fund for that fiscal year minus: The difference between $100,000,000 and the proceeds of the sale of insurance premium and corporate tax credits that are credited to the health insurance affordability cash fund; and Unless money held in an escrow account in connection with the university of northern Colorado's college of osteopathic medicine is released, an additional $41,250,000. The bill lowers the reserve requirement to 13% for state fiscal years 2025-26 and 2026-27 and then raises it back to 15% for state fiscal years 2027-28 and later. (Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
