The 2024-2025 Texas Budget, signed by Governor Abbott on June 18, 2023, allocates approximately $321 billion from all funds and $144 billion in general revenue for the two-year period from September 1, 2023, to August 31, 2025. The Legislature began the session with $188.2 billion in general revenue, including a record $32.7 billion carryover balance and $23.5 billion in the state's rainy-day fund. While the budget shows 10% and 6% increases in general revenue and all funds respectively compared to the previous biennium, the analysis notes that after adjusting for inflation and population growth, actual spending increases are considerably smaller, and lawmakers prioritized property tax cuts over long-overdue investments in public education and health care despite the surplus opportunity.
