State adds 5% to UC ANR budget and more

Nutrition Policy Institute receives $2.4 million in 2022-23 California state budget to evaluate school meals for all.

Governor Newsom signed the first budget bill (SB 154) on June 27, and the second budget bill (AB 178) June 30. Together, these bills fund the core of the state budget. Provisions include: 

  • 5% increase for UC ANR's budget (This allows UC ANR to adjust employee salaries effective July 1, 2022, as described in the May 20 UC ANR Update.) 
  • $2.4 million in one-time funds for Nutrition Policy Institute to evaluate
  •  “School Meals for All
  • $125 million in one-time funds for UC deferred maintenance, seismic mitigation and energy efficiency projects. 
  • $185 million in one-time funds to support UC climate change research

“The state budget process is not finished and we expect several Budget Trailer Bills to be taken up in August after the Legislature returns from Summer Recess. Stay tuned!” said Anne Megaro, director of government relations.
