Summary

Session
Regular Session 2015
Title
Taxation, receipts, state entities, authority to unearmark and use for other areas where funding has been reduced
Description

Currently, some Alabama tax and revenue statutes dedicate specific tax receipts to be expended for specific entities for specific purposes. This earmarking of tax receipts does not give the entity which receives these funds the flexibility to use those funds for other purposes for which the need may be greater.

This bill will provide flexibility for state entities to utilize state revenue for purposes which are in addition to the stated purpose under current law. This provision will not apply to revenues which are distributed pursuant to the state constitution or to revenue which is directed by federal law or specific court order to be used for a particular purpose.
