Bill Summary · SB 113

Legislative bill overview

SB 113 is California's Budget Act of 2025, which passed the Senate on March 20, 2025 with a 28-10 vote and is now in the Assembly for consideration. The bill authorizes the state's spending and revenue plans for the 2025 fiscal year, setting appropriations across all state agencies and programs.

Why is this important

Budget acts are foundational legislation that determine how billions in taxpayer dollars are allocated across education, healthcare, infrastructure, public safety, and social services. The outcome directly affects program funding levels, tax policy, and the state's fiscal priorities for the upcoming year.

Potential points of contention

  • Revenue sources vs. spending levels: Disagreement over whether proposed revenues (taxes, fees, bonds) adequately match spending commitments or create deficits
  • Priority allocation disputes: Competing demands between education funding, healthcare expansion, infrastructure investment, and deficit reduction
  • Program cuts or expansions: Whether specific departments or services face reductions versus increased investment, affecting public sector jobs and service delivery
