LEGISLATIVE

48th Oklahoma Legislature
First Session - 2001
OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR
HIGHER EDUCATION
From: Bryce Fair &
Carolyn McCoy
Friday, March 23, 2001
Highlights This Week:
Supplemental Appropriations Await Governor’s Action: This week the Senate and House passed a
“general appropriations” bill that would provide “base” level funding for all
state entities in the next fiscal year, but also contained $96 million in
supplemental funds for the current year.
The bill contains a total of $837.5 million for higher education— $820.7
million in “base” funding for FY2002 and $16.8 million in supplemental
appropriations. The supplemental appropriations
consist of three funding items-- $2.8 million for debt payments on bond-funded
capital projects; $5 million for utility costs; and $9 million for the endowed
chairs program.
HB 1564 passed the Senate on Tuesday by a 31-15 vote and
then received House approval on Wednesday by a 58-42 margin. The votes split largely along party lines,
with Democrats voting in favor and Republicans opposing. In the Senate, the 31 yes votes included 28
Democrats and 3 Republicans; the 15 no votes were all Republicans. In the House, the 58 yes votes were cast by
50 Democrats and 8 Republicans; the 42 no votes came from 40 Republicans and 2
Democrats.
The bill was sent to Governor Keating on Thursday. He has five days, excluding Sunday, to act
on the bill. The Governor has the
authority to veto any or all appropriation sections in the bill.
