California Budget

The California budget is a financial plan created by the state government to outline how money will be collected and spent. It includes revenue from taxes, fees, and federal funds, and allocates funds to various sectors such as education, healthcare, transportation, and public safety. Each year, the Governor proposes a budget, which is then reviewed and approved by the state legislature. The budget reflects the state's priorities and needs, aiming to ensure fiscal responsibility while addressing the demands of California's diverse population. It plays a crucial role in shaping the state's economy and public services.
