The fiscal note estimates a negative impact to General Revenue Related Funds ranging from ($63.7 million) to ($211.7 million) through August 31, 2019, depending on payment schedule scenarios, with costs escalating significantly through 2022 to approximately ($1.1 billion) annually while the Foundation School Fund would receive corresponding increases.
