      General Overview:
      • Governor Shapiro’s FY 2026-27 proposed budget of $53.26 billion increases spending by $2.72 billion, or 5.4%, over the current fiscal year.

      • FY 2026-27 current tax structure revenues are estimated to grow by $919 million, or 1.9%.

      • To balance his FY 2026-27 spending proposal, Governor Shapiro needs $6.46 billion in new revenue. To accomplish this, he proposed the following transfers and tax revenue modifications:
      o Transferring $4.58 billion out of the Rainy Day Fund to the General Fund.
      o Enactment of new taxes and changes to the current tax structure and tax credits totaling $1.88 billion in new revenue, primarily by taxing skill games, recreational marijuana, and a minimum wage increase.
