  1. Social Services/Child Welfare and Environment and Energy 1. Authorize State to Administer Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Eliminating the fee charged to the state and implementing the program at the state level saves money efficiently. Although there will be an investment of $574,000 in 2010-2011, and $11 million in 2011-2012, the state will save $60 million annually after the state SSI program is implemented.

  2. Social Services/Child Welfare and Environment and Energy 2. Authorize court to Permit Electronic Testimony in Court. • Authorizing the court to permit electronic testimony is fair. It allows individuals to take part in family court cases that might not otherwise be able to. • Total savings to the state: $41 million. 3. Collect Past Due Local Costs for the State Juvenile Justice System. • This is a fair approach, because the funds that are collected for past debt are placed into a special revenue fund for a youth facility. • Total savings to the state: $36 million. • Eliminate Kinship Guardianship Assistance Program (KGAP). • This program is deeply flawed and lacks clear policies. The government is being accountable by removing a program that has existing flaws. • Total savings to the state: $2.1 million.

Eliminate Grape Genomics Funding. • A significant way in which the state can save money is by researching areas where provided funding is not being used. Grape Genomics is one of these areas. • The state is being efficient and accountable by finding unused money that can be used for declining businesses. • Total savings to the state: $7.5 million 6. Reimburse the State for Snowmobile Expenses. • The state cannot afford extra snowmobile expenses because it requires a lot of money, time, and effort to keep trails maintained for snowmobilers. • The state is acting responsibly by transferring money out of the Snowmobile Account and into the General Fund. • Total savings to the state: $2 million.
