This bill would change the state budgeting process by requiring the Governor to submit a separate budget recommendation specifically for the Transportation Cabinet, rather than including it within a broader budget proposal. The goal is to give the Transportation Cabinet its own distinct budget document in the official recommendation process. Who it may affect: state government agencies and lawmakers involved in the budget process.
