Take backs

As we have noted from the most recent controller's statement, the revenue forecasts that were the foundation of the governor's budget proposal of last month now seem to be overoptimistic.*

The Legislative Analyst's Office has come to the same conclusion and is looking for more ways to cut the budget.** Only a few touch on UC. LAO in particular wants to take back from this year's budget (2023-24):

UC Cancer Research Relating to Firefighters $7 million

UC Berkeley School of Journalism Police Records Access Project $7 million

UC Los Angeles Ralph J. Bunche Center $5 million

UC Davis Equine Performance and Rehabilitation Center $5 million

Whether this money has already been spent is unclear.
