Data

Note the disclaimer on the website:

Because of many changes over the years (including, but not limited to, changes in the sources of funding for certain state programs, deferrals of scheduled payments and tax collections, and other accounting changes), this data may not provide sufficient information to evaluate trends in general state spending, spending for particular programs, or state revenues. Consulting other sources, such as the LAO's annual Spending Plan publications, is advised when conducting such trend analyses.
