Overview
Oklahoma's $6.7 billion state budget for FY2011 was approved in May 2010 and is $400 million less than the previous budget. State revenues declined almost 17% in FY2010, down approximately $945 million from FY2009.Businessweek "Treasurer: Brighter days ahead for Okla. economy" July 14, 2010 As a result, lawmakers cut state agency budgets 7.5% midway through FY2010. Then lawmakers relied on a combination of fee hikes, deferred tax credits and further cuts to state agencies (3% cut in general) to help balance the FY2011 budget. That was not, however, enough and lawmakers additionally relied on $500 million in federal stimulus money and $277 million in funds from the Constitutional Reserve Fund to balance the FY2011 state budget.Oklahoma has nearly $600 million remaining in its Constitutional Reserve Fund, but has limitations in using it to fill the budget shortfall. Three-eighths of the fund may be used to fill the 2010 mid-year gap, three-eighths may be used for the next fiscal year, and the remaining quarter may be used in a declared emergency by the Governor with a three-quarter vote of the Legislature.
