Lawmakers are betting on $115 million of Federal Medical Assistance Percentages (FMAP) funds to supplement their proposed budgets. Whether to include the funds, which are by no means guarenteed, has been a point of contention between the House and Senate. The Senate worked $880 million in FMAP funds in its proposed budget, but that number appears to have been scaled back. Here are initial FMAP allocation charts for each committee.

Pre-K-12 0

Higher Education $25 million

Health Care $50

Criminal and Civil Justice 0

Transportattion and Economic Development $40 million

Natural Resources 0

General Government 0
