In accordance with AS 37.14.003(b), a report of the differences between the Governor's proposed budget and the recommendations of the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority was submitted with a letter from the Office of Management and Budget. Governor's transmittal letter dated March 5: Dear President Therriault: The comprehensive mental health budget bill delivered today contains my proposal for the 2004 fiscal year. This Administration has gone through an extensive process to evaluate state programs in order to prepare the state budget. Given our current financial situation, many programs are held at current levels, some are reduced, and a few are eliminated. A copy of the report to the Mental Health Trust Authority is attached. I look forward to working closely with this Legislature to jointly craft a responsive state budget that efficiently provides Alaska residents essential state services at a cost that the state can afford over the long- term. Sincerely yours, /s/ Frank H. Murkowski Governor SB 100 SENATE BILL NO. 100 BY THE SENATE RULES COMMITTEE BY REQUEST OF THE GOVERNOR, entitled: "An Act making capital appropriations and reappropriations; capitalizing a fund; making appropriations under art.
