2Mid-Year Actions Under Proposition 58
- The Governor has declared a fiscal emergency
under Proposition 58, triggering the following - The Legislature is now called into Special
Session to deal with the Budget crisis - The Governor must submit a plan to address the
Budget imbalance - The Legislature must adopt a plan to address the
problem by March 15 (that is, within 45 days of
the declaration) otherwise it may not act on any
other legislation and it may not adjourn - The plan must be adopted by a two-thirds vote of
the Legislature, allowing the savings to take
effect immediately
