A hundred different $30 million programs is still nearly $22 billion short of the budget shortfall.
Anyhoo, different CA programs have different funding methods. AB 118 had specific stipulations regarding how it will be paid and is more or less independent of the state budget because of those stipulations. The programs that don't have specific funding sources are the ones behind the budget shortfall and the ones on the chopping block to at least some extent, barring of course tax increases.
