Operating appropriations passed by the Legislature from funds subject to the outlook (NGFO) are $52.562 billion for 2019–21 and $59.213 billion for 2021–23. (NGFO appropriations for 2021–23 are $20.0 million higher as passed by the Legislature April 25 than as proposed in the conference agreement. The difference is due to appropriations in ESB 5476.)

The Legislature also appropriated $8.782 billion in federal relief funds across 2019–21 and 2021–23. That’s on top of an estimated $7.237 billion in federal relief that had previously been allocated or appropriated for 2019–21 (this number does not include unobligated funds at the end of 2021). Including the NGFO and federal relief, the Legislature appropriated $60.429 billion in 2019–21 (an increase of 35.2% over 2017–19) and $67.365 billion for 2021–23 (an increase of 11.5% over revised 2019–21 appropriations).

The chart shows how this spending compares to previous biennia and the separate budgets passed by the Senate and House at the beginning of April.
