Abstract

This issue review provides a review of Iowa's expenditure law and recent statutory and session-law changes that have changed the process. This issue review also includes examples from the fiscal year 2013 budget enacted during the 2012 legislative session to help explain how the various aspects of the expenditure limitation law are applied to legislative decision making. At the end of this issue review is a schematic showing the distribution of fiscal year 2012 general fund surplus revenues when the expenditure limitation provisions are applied.
