BILL NUMBER:A8665 TITLE OF BILL: An act to temporarily freeze state spending for fiscal years 2009-2010, 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To enact a temporary freeze on state spending in order to help New York State reduce its debt. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 states that neither the gover- nor nor the legislature shall act upon any appropriation bills which would authorize an increase in total state spending for the fiscal years 2009-2010, 2010-2011 and 2011-2012. Section 2 allows that an increase in spending can occur in the case of an emergency. In order to increase spending in excess of the limitation provided in subdivision one an emergency must be declared by the gover- nor and such spending must be authorized by a two-thirds vote in both the Assembly and Senate. Section 3 mandates that all revenues in excess of the state spending limitations in these fiscal years shall be deposited into a service fund used to pay off the state debt. Section 4 any legislation with fiscal implications passed after the budget for these fiscal years shall be offset with savings derived from existing funds and shall not impose additional costs to the state.
