Bills: SB5998
Summary: The Senate Ways and Means Committee met in executive session on Proposed Substitute Senate Bill 5998, the operating budget, and received a staff briefing on 39 proposed amendments. The amendments covered a wide range of budget items, including technical corrections; court truancy funding; public defense; humanities and reading programs; shellfish program audit funding; tribal and cultural resource planning; agritourism; transmission authority implementation; paid family and medical leave; developmental disabilities services; nursing home rate add-ons; TANF workforce services; food bank language; oral health access; behavioral health and partnership access line funding; health technology assessment funding; sexual assault nurse examiner training; Department of Corrections security measures; child welfare staffing; pediatric interim care centers; child care, local effort assistance, and transition to kindergarten; range rider funding; Chinese American history month materials; Running Start; retiree health subsidies; people transportation language; charter school enrichment; arts grants; and a tribal liaison at the Eastern Washington State Historical Society. The committee adopted several amendments, including the technical packet, public defense savings correction, humanities reading program funding, shellfish audit funding, cultural resource model ordinance work, transmission authority implementation funding, oral health foundation support, health technology assessment funding, governor errata corrections, sexual assault nurse examiner training, DOC policy language on canine use, child welfare staffing correction, people transportation language, charter school enrichment reallocation to transition to kindergarten, and tribal liaison funding. Some amendments were withdrawn, including the truancy funding increase, Blake-related public defense funding, the DD waiver wait list expansion, one nursing home add-on restoration, one LEA-related amendment, and the DOC K-9 minimum camp amendment. Other amendments were rejected, including agritourism, paid leave study, DD waiver expansion, nursing home add-on restoration, range rider funding, Chinese American history month materials, Running Start restoration, and arts grant restoration. Several amendments drew substantive debate over budget priorities and fiscal sustainability, especially those involving developmental disabilities services, long-term care, child care, Running Start, LEA enhancement, and the use of one-time funds versus ongoing obligations. Supporters argued for restoring services, protecting vulnerable populations, and funding programs with strong public benefit; opponents emphasized the need to balance the budget, avoid ongoing commitments without stable revenue, and reserve some issues for collective bargaining or future negotiations. The committee ultimately rolled the adopted amendments into a new substitute version of SB 5998 and voted to send it to the Rules Committee with a do pass recommendation, subject to signatures. Several members stated they would vote no on the budget, while the chair noted the process had been collaborative.

Summary: The House Appropriations Committee met on April 22 and first considered Chairman Beaulieu’s House Bill 646, a constitutional amendment limiting the amount of State General Fund money that may be appropriated in a fiscal year. After adopting a set of amendments creating the Louisiana Income Tax Elimination Fund and making conforming changes, the committee reported the bill favorably as amended. The companion bill, House Bill 824, which establishes the growth limit formula based on CPI, medical CPI, and population change, was also amended and reported favorably as amended. Supporters framed both measures as a way to keep spending within recurring revenues and create a path toward reducing or eliminating the state income tax. The committee then reported favorably as amended House Bill 1157, creating the Louisiana State Infrastructure Fund to help finance infrastructure-related projects, with testimony that it would leverage private and federal dollars and initially focus on rail, port, road, and bridge projects. House Bill 316, which provides a framework for student literacy reforms for grades four through eight, was presented as having no new cost because the Department of Education said the work was already covered by existing resources; it was reported favorably. House Bill 549, creating the Bayou Growth Opportunity Workforce Program to provide employer-based training grants, also received support from business groups and was reported favorably as amended. House Bill 1129, dealing with the sale of state-owned surplus movable property, drew support from Louisiana auctioneers who argued local firms should be allowed to bid on the state’s auction contract instead of relying on an out-of-state vendor; it was reported favorably. House Bill 873, which would fund pursuit intervention technology through a $2 driver’s license fee, generated significant concern about adding fees and whether the money should instead come from existing budgets. After discussion of the proposed technologies and training, the committee deferred the bill voluntarily to work on alternatives, including a possible sunset and other funding options. Finally, House Bill 752, which would change the timing and duration of regular legislative sessions by joint rule, was reported without action after members noted the revised fiscal note showed a decrease in state general fund expenditures. The meeting then adjourned.
