As I wrote earlier, the supplemental budget compromise would increase 2015-17 NGFS+ spending by $190.4 million. Maintenance level spending would increase by $203.3 million while policy level spending would decrease by a net of $13.0 million.

NGFS+ appropriations in other legislation add an additional $500,000 (for the Washington State Institute for Public Policy to hire a consultant for the Education Funding Task Force — 2SSB 6195).

The maintenance level includes a reduction of $17.4 million to adjust K-3 class size funding based on utilization — the House had not included that adjustment in its earlier budget proposal.

At the policy level, the House-passed budget would have spent $98.5 million to recruit and retain K-12 staff. That included salary increases — they are not funded in the compromise. The compromise does include $3.5 million for the beginning educator support program and $1.8 million for professional development for paraeducators. (Details on the House's original proposal here.)

Other policy level highlights:

• $3.9 million for charter schools.
• $18.0 million for the State Need Grant.
• $7.9 million to backfill tuition at the public higher education institutions (related to the College Affordability Program).
• $32 million for the Moore v. HCA lawsuit (related to employee health benefits).
• $43.0 million is saved by using marijuana revenues rather than the general fund for certain Medicaid payments.
• $13.3 million is saved by maintaining managed care rates at the CY 2016 level.
• $11.0 million in transitional support for Western State Hospital.
• $29.4 million for individual provider overtime (assumes enactment of E2SHB 1725).
• $41.3 million is saved by using federal funds instead of the general fund for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.
• The medical assistance forecast function is transferred to the Office of Financial Management from the Health Care Authority.
• For the Department of Revenue's audit functions, $10.0 million from the performance audits of government account is used rather than the general fund.
