Wallace and Elizabeth Hernandez) Senate Bill 1652 (Sen. Andy Manar - Pat McGuire - Iris Y. Martinez - Melinda Bush - Don Harmon, Laura M. Murphy, Omar Aquino, Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, Linda Holmes and Steve Stadelman) Purpose The state’s unprecedented fiscal challenges require a full weighing of outstanding vouchers and the ramifications of the $12 billion-plus unpaid bill backlog. House Bill 3649/Senate Bill 1652 seeks to provide a more accurate accounting of bills being held by each state agency and the late interest penalties the state is accruing. Background: After appropriations are made and services are provided, each state agency sends bills to the Comptroller for payment. However, if vouchers for payment are held at the agency level due to a lack of appropriation or processing delays, these liabilities remain largely hidden from the Comptroller. The state’s Prompt Payment Act, which assigns a 1% per month penalty to bills that are 90 days past due, applies to a currently unknown number of the bills being held by the agencies.
