Bill > HJR6

This resolution establishes the official revenue estimates for Delaware's state government for Fiscal Year 2026, in compliance with the State Constitution's requirement that annual appropriations cannot exceed 98% of estimated general fund revenue. Specifically, the resolution sets the estimated gross general fund revenue at $7,330.9 million, with estimated revenue refunds of $548.0 million, resulting in a net State general fund revenue of $6,782.9 million. Additionally, the resolution estimates unencumbered funds (funds remaining from the previous fiscal year) at $446.9 million. These estimates are crucial for budget planning, as they determine the maximum amount of funds the state can appropriate for the fiscal year, and must be approved by a majority of members in both the House of Representatives and Senate, and signed by the Governor.
