FISCAL IMPACT
The bill would increase FY 2014-15 Gross State appropriations by $7,775,000, and GF/GP appropriations by $6,775,000, with a $9,350,100 Gross and $7,150,100 GF/GP increase in FY 2015-16 State appropriations. The bill would allow continuation of previously established work projects in the Departments of State and Transportation, by re-appropriating funds for work project accounts that are due to expire on September 30, 2015. The bill also includes offsetting positive and negative appropriations for Treasury-Strategic Fund special grants ($500,000) and DHHS Michigan Rehabilitation Services funding ($130,927,900) and in-home care and community-based juvenile justice services for rural counties ($400,000), in order to change boilerplate language requirements for these programs. Table 2 summarizes the details of the appropriations in the bill.
FY 2014-15 BOILERPLATE LANGUAGE SECTIONS
Sec. 201. General. Records amount of total State spending and payments to local units of government.
Sec. 202. General. Subjects appropriations and expenditures in the bill to the provisions of the Management and Budget Act.
Sec. 301. Department of State. Re-appropriates $6,000,000 for the re-establishment of the business application modernization work project, with a tentative completion date of September 30, 2019.

Sec. 501. Treasury-Strategic Fund. Modifies and replaces existing language for the Michigan GED-to-School Program to remove requirements that: the GED test be taken and passed on or after June 1, 2015; individuals enroll in coursework within two years after passing the GED; and Treasury develop a process to collect payments from individuals who took the GED test but failed to meet other requirements.

Enacting Section 2. Repeals Section 1069 of Public Act 252 of 2014, Article VIII (the General Government annual appropriation act) and replaces it with Section 501 in this bill, which removes certain restrictions for the GED-to-School Program.
