The Governor’s January budget proposal was released on January 8, 2010. What does it propose for the CSU?
The Governor’s initial budget proposal for 2010-11 proposes to restore $305 million to the CSU base budget, and provide an additional $60.6 million for enrollment growth. The budget reductions in 2009-10 included $305 million in one-time cuts that the State had committed to restore in 2010-11. The Governor’s proposed budget would restore that base budget funding. The $60.6 million for enrollment growth is contingent upon the State receiving a threshold amount in federal aid for other state programs. Overall, the Governor’s budget proposal seeks to close a $19.9 billion deficit over the next 18 months through a variety of budget cuts, shifts in spending, and assumed new federal funds. However, the Governor‘s budget proposal puts a priority on protecting education. More information on the Governor’s January budget proposal is available at: http://gov.ca.gov/press-release/14154/.
