Summary

The Financial Information System for California (FI$Cal) Act establishes the FI$Cal system, a single integrated financial management system for the state. Existing law requires that the system include a state transparency component that allows the public to have access to expenditure data using an internet website. Existing law limits that public access to information regarding General Fund, special fund, and federal fund expenditure data. This bill would enact the Budget Transparency Act of 2019. The bill would modify the transparency component of the system described above to require it to have information regarding all state expenditures, including the amount, the type, and a description of each state expenditure. The bill would require the internet website to be interactive, searchable, regularly updated, and include specified features, including information on each state expenditure.
