Major Takeaways from Governor’s FY 2021 Budget

10

Governor’s Proposed FY 2021 Budget

✓ Revenue projections from last year (FY 2020) projected $221 million more in general revenue fund collections for FY 2021. Severance forecast down $174.5 million from last year. In 2016 (FY17) estimated GRF collections were $460 million above this year’s estimate for FY 2021. ✓ Six-Year Financial Plan shows no additional money for Higher Education from FY21-FY24, but substantial growth in Medicaid in FY 2024 (+$106.7 million) and moderate growth in corrections, DHHR, and PEIA. No salary enhancements for two years (+$23m in FY 2023). ✓ State continues to significantly underfund higher education and needs to adequately fund agencies across the board to meet growing needs and pay gaps. ✓ Energy economy (property taxes), lottery and Medicaid surpluses, and declining school enrollment allowing state to fill budget holes. Between FY 2012 and FY2019, lottery funds had an average annual surplus of $68 million or 14%. ✓ West Virginia continues to have a structural budget deficit (spending > revenue) from major tax cuts enacted between 2006 and 2015. State needs to raise additional revenues to meet current needs and to invest in our people and communities to build a stronger economy.

  • While 11 states tax inventory and M&E, 26 states tax M&E.
  • There is no obvious relationship between manufacturing

employment growth and/or industrial property tax rates or states that tax BPPT between 2011-2017 (e.g. Texas/South Carolina)

  • Highly exportable tax (76% in MN).
  • WV effective industrial property tax rates are near national

average.

  • Small cost of doing business and it pays for public goods

manufacturers need (schools, public safety).

  • Recent (2017) academic study found that removing the tax

led to significant manufacturing jobs losses in Ohio.

  • Could result in tax shift (households) and/or less funding for

schools and other local budget priorities (fire, police, etc.
