Appropriations Committee shall not be in order and may not be
considered unless the amendment contains sufficient revisions or
reductions to that 2015-2016 Budget so that the amendment does
not result in a net increase to the total spending and yields a
balanced budget based on current and projected revenues. Where a
proposed alteration in the General Appropriation Bill is
balanced, in whole or in part, by a change in other
appropriation bills or other budget implementing legislation,
the amendment shall have appended thereto a "statement of
intent" setting forth the proposed adjustment to the other
appropriation bill or bills that will result in no net increase
in the total spending from the General Fund or any special fund
contained within the 2015-2016 Budget as reported from the
Appropriations Committee.
3. For the purpose of this temporary rule, the Legislative
Reference Bureau, in drafting any amendment to the General
Appropriation Bill or any other appropriation bill, shall append
the "statement of intent" required for a proposal which involves
more than one bill.
4. Any amendment offered on the floor of the Senate
proposing to make reductions in the following appropriations
shall be out of order unless the amendment provides for a
revision not contrary to Federal or State statutes governing
such programs:
(a) Medical Assistance-Outpatient.
(b) Medical Assistance-Inpatient.
(c) Medical Assistance-Fee-for-service.
(d) Medical Assistance-Capitation.
(e) Long-Term Care.
(f) Long-Term Care Managed Care.
