HB 683 Louisiana House · 2025 Regular Session

FUNDS/FUNDING: Provides relative to the disposition of certain state revenues through repeal of the Revenue Stabilization Trust Fund and dedication of certain revenues to the Budget Stabilization Fund. (EG SEE FISC NOTE GF RV See Note)

HB 683 restructures how Louisiana manages certain state revenues by repealing the existing Revenue Stabilization Trust Fund. Instead, it dedicates specific state revenues, such as excess general fund money and mineral revenues above a set base, to the Budget Stabilization Fund. The bill outlines new ways money is deposited into this fund and increases its maximum balance from four percent to seven and one-half percent of the previous year's total state revenue receipts. This legislation primarily affects the state's financial management system and how it saves funds for future needs.
