Existing law requires the Legislature to pass a budget bill each year prescribing appropriations and expenditures for the ensuing fiscal year. Existing law specifies that General Fund money consists of money received into the state treasury and not required by law to be credited to any other fund. Existing law requires a minimum level of funding to be allocated from the General Fund each year for school districts and community colleges. Existing law also provides for state budget reserves, including the Budget Stabilization Account, the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties, and the Safety Net Reserve. This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation providing for budget reserves equal to or greater than 20% of the General Fund budget, excluding funds for the minimum level of school funding allocated pursuant to Proposition 98 of 1988.
Existing law, the Personal Income Tax Law, imposes taxes on taxable income, as provided, and allows for various credits against the "net tax," as defined. Existing law also establishes the Office of Emergency Services within the office of the Governor, which is responsible for, among other things, the state's emergency and disaster response services for specified disasters and emergencies. This bill would, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2023, allow a credit against the "net tax" in the amount of $500 if the taxpayer made at least 4 donations of human whole blood or human blood components, as defined, to a specified entity. This bill would also authorize the Office of Emergency Services to enter into partnerships with private sector entities to encourage the private sector to provide meaningful incentives for individuals to make these donations. Existing law requires any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure to contain, among other things, specific goals, purposes, and objectives that the tax expenditure will achieve, detailed performance indicators, and data collection requirements. The bill also would include additional information required for any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure.

This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to that provision.
