Manteca Unified School District 45 Day Revise Sept 14, 2004

Golden State Deja Vu “The new Republican governor is getting credit for compromising with a Democratic legislature. Some conservatives are miffed that he hasn’t cut spending enough, but they like the way he uses his personal charm to get what he wants. His stature is growing as a national figure... “The actor-turned-politician relies on advice from businesses to close loopholes in a troubled Workers’- Comp system and combat the growth of taxes.” Source: The Kiplinger California Letter (1967) That comes from our 1967 Kiplinger California Letter archives, documenting Ronald Reagan’s first year after his election as Governor.

Budget gap totaled $13.9 billion Majority of cuts are in Proposition 98 and local government Borrowing and most transfers will require future repayment Balancing the Budget: Summary of Solutions Cuts $4.0 billion Borrowing $2.1 billion Fund Shifts $1.6 billion Cost Avoidance $4.4 billion Transfers/ Other $1.8 billion 15.4% 11.2% 31.7% 13.0% 28.7% The Governor’s Take

Budget Balancing Summary Borrowing –Economic Recovery Bond –Pension Obligation Bond –Indian Gaming –Transportation Expenditure Reductions –Government Reductions –Prop 98 New Revenues –Punitive Damages –Higher Fees – Colleges –Indian Gaming –Shifting School District Emergency Loans into Prop 98

The Proposition 98 “Deal” The Governor and the Education Coalition cut an early deal on Proposition 98: –$2 billion suspension in the guarantee –Delay in “settle up” of $1.2 billion from prior years –$150 million in annual payments toward “settle up” commencing in –Full growth and COLA for all programs –New money 75/25 unrestricted/restricted –Protection from deeper cuts contemplated by the Legislature This deal kept education funding out of the end-game budget battle, which did involve: –Local government funding –Pension obligation bonds –“Sue your boss” amendments – Repeal of SB 1419 contracting-out restrictions

The Proposition 98 “Deal” Was this a good deal for education? –Under our projection, the $2 billion cut will not be restored, and remains through at least –The “settle up” funds will not be fully paid until , assuming no additional amounts are owed –$302 million in the General Fund reserve for Proposition 98 will have to be appropriated; it will not automatically be provided On the other hand: –Proposition 98 was not used as the Budget-balancing tool to close the final negotiations between the Legislature and the Governor
