AI Summary
This bill requires the state budget outlook work group to regularly update the state budget outlook to reflect the most recent revenue forecast, ensuring that projections for state revenues and expenditures are based on the latest available information. Specifically, after an operating budget is enacted, the work group must prepare an outlook reflecting that budget, and then update it quarterly to incorporate the newest revenue forecasts. Additionally, each November, the outlook will be updated to include any adjustments from the previous fiscal year's close-out. The bill amends RCW 82.33.060, which governs the preparation and content of the state budget outlook, a document used to forecast state finances and guide legislative decisions.
