Bill Summary
Relative to the growth of the state budget. Ways and Means.
AI Summary
This bill aims to limit the annual growth of the state budget to the rate of inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index for Boston. Specifically, it amends Section 6E of Chapter 29 of the General Laws to state that the state budget shall not increase in total budget appropriations from the current fiscal year by a percentage change greater than the rate of inflation. This measure is intended to promote fiscally responsible budget growth and ensure the state's spending does not outpace the rate of inflation.
