With the Senate completing its work on the FY2026 state budget last month, a House-Senate Conference Committee is now working to resolve differences between the two versions of the funding documents. CHAPA has submitted a letter to the six members of the committee, urging them to support the highest possible funding levels for key housing programs.
The new state fiscal year begins on July 1, 2025, so for there to be an on-time budget in place, the Conference Committee will need to complete its work and both branches will need to pass the final budget by June 20 to give the Governor ten days to sign or return items with vetoes.
