"Recession Continues to Batter State Budgets; State Responses Could Slow Recovery," Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, July 15, 2010. Available at: http://www.cbpp.org/9-8-08sfp.htm.

Definitions: 

NA: Not Applicable.

Footnotes: 
  1. California, New York, and Michigan have not completed their FY11 budgets so these gaps remain open. California's shortfall does not include $1.2 billion in proposed reserve replenishment.
  2. Oregon and Washington have two-year budgets. For Oregon, the size of the combined shortfall before budget adoption for FY10 and FY11 is shown here. For Washington, the mid-year gap shown is the projected gap for the two years ending in FY11.
