Comparing the House and Senate budgets

Both the House and Senate have unveiled their respective operating and capital budget requests and legislators will begin negotiating final budgets to send to the governor’s desk in the coming weeks.

The WSU budget office has prepared side-by-side analyses incorporating original WSU requests compared with budget proposals from the governor, House and Senate. You can find the operating budget analysis here and the capital budget analysis here.

WSU has registered its support for both operating budget proposals and both capital budget proposals produced by the House and Senate even as there are differences between them.
