In 2006, Florida voters adopted a constitutional amendment that requires the development of a Long-Range Financial Outlook, setting out recommended fiscal strategies for the state and its departments in order to assist the Legislature in making budget decisions. The Legislative Budget Commission is required to issue the Outlook by September 15th of each year. The 2015 Outlook is the ninth document developed in accordance with the provisions of Article III, Section 19(c)(1) of the Florida Constitution. Ultimately, the Outlook is a tool that provides an opportunity to both avoid future budget problems and maintain financial stability between state fiscal years. The Outlook accomplishes this by providing a longer-range picture of the state’s fiscal position that integrates projections of the major programs driving Florida’s annual budget requirements with the revenue estimates. In this regard, the budget projections primarily reflect current-law spending requirements. The Outlook does not purport to predict the overall funding levels of future state budgets or the final amount of funds to be allocated to the respective budget areas. This is because very few assumptions are made regarding future legislative policy decisions on discretionary spending, making this document simply a reasonable baseline. Estimated revenues and tax provisions are generally treated in the same way; however, a new section has been added this year that shows the effects of continuing to make revenue adjustments similar in scope to those that have been made over the past three years. The Outlook also includes economic, demographic, and debt analyses to provide a framework for the financial projections and covers the upcoming three fiscal years: in this version, 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2018-19. It does this by using anticipated revenues and expenditures in the current year (2015-16) as the baseline. Within each table, all funds remaining after the budget drivers and other key issues are fully funded for each year are carried forward into the following fiscal year. Who produced it? The Outlook was developed jointly by the Senate Committee on Appropriations, the House Appropriations Committee, and the Legislative Office of Economic and Demographic Research. How was the Outlook developed? All major programs that have historically driven significant increases in the state’s

Lichtman from the Coalition‟s Appendix (Tab M) and to strike the two references to that report from the Coalition‟s brief (Coalition Br. at 27 n.13, 43). In moving to strike, the Legislature and the Attorney General rely on past practice in this Court‟s apportionment reviews and act as though the enactment of Article III, Section 21 has not changed anything. See Mot. ¶ 3 (quoting past apportionment cases). Specifically, they urge that the type of review this Court must undertake to determine the validity of the apportionment plans is exactly the same as in past reviews. But this Court has already acknowledged that Article III, Section 21 would “change the standard of review to be applied when either the attorney general seeks a „declaratory judgment‟ with regard to the validity of a legislative apportionment, or a redistricting plan is challenged.” Advisory Opinion to Attorney General re Standards For Establishing Legislative District Boundaries, 2 So.
