<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Governor Newsom released his January Budget proposal today. Below is a summary of the key points and a description of the provisions that affect the University. The higher education
summary document and health summary document are attached. You can view the full summary document
<a href="http://www.ebudget.ca.gov/FullBudgetSummary.pdf" target="_blank">here.</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><b><u>Total Budget</u></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Governor Newsom today introduced his 2021-22 budget, which proposes $164.5 billion in State General Fund expenditures. This budget utilizes $18.4 billion in new discretionary surplus
and includes a $15.6 billion reserve.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><b><u>University of California</u></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The proposed budget includes a total of $3.819 billion in State General Fund support for University of California. The Governor’s proposed budget provides the University with $136.3
million, or 3.9%, increase in ongoing funding over the 2020-21 level, bringing total ongoing funding to $3.59 billion. The University is also provided with $225.3 million in one-time funds. The Regents’ Budget Plan had requested a base-budget increase of $518.3
million and one-time funds of $250 million.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Under the proposal, the University’s primary General Fund appropriation would include $3.514 billion of ongoing funds. This amount reflects a $127.4 million increase in new ongoing
funding over 2020-21 for campuses and $225.3 million in one-time funds. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The proposed budget continues to fund UCOP (including ANR and UC Path) separately from the University’s primary General Fund allocation.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The total UCOP budget is $305.9 million, which is $8.9 million more than in 2020-21. In addition, budget bill language would authorize a campus assessment of up to $7.3 million
for ANR. The budget bill language authorizing a campus assessment for UC Path remains the same as in prior years.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">In total the Governor’s Budget Introduction proposes to restore $100.3 million of the $300.8 million reduction UC received in 2020-21. The Governor is framing this as a 3% base
budget increase, rather than a base budget restoration.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
