Beacon Hill Roll Call records local senators’ and representatives’ votes on roll calls from the week of Nov. 30 to Dec. 4.
$46.2 billion fiscal year 2021 budget (H 5164)
The House, 147 to 10, and the Senate, 40 to 0, approved and sent to Gov. Charlie Baker a compromise version of a $46.2 billion fiscal year 2021 state budget for the fiscal year that began July 1. The state has been operating on temporary budgets approved by the Legislature. The package includes using $1.7 billion from the state’s Rainy Day Fund $350 million more than Baker recommended. That withdrawal leaves the fund with about $1.8 billion.
