Responding to uncertainty about the future of federal funding, this bill creates a new state planning infrastructure around Utah's reliance on federal dollars: it requires the Legislative Fiscal Analyst to send the federal funds portions of periodic budget stress tests — analyses that project how the state's finances would hold up under various economic conditions — to the Federalism Commission, which must then review those results and may make budget recommendations to the Legislature's appropriations leaders. Separately, the bill directs the Analytics Solutions Center at USU's Huntsman School of Business to build and maintain a publicly available online dashboard showing how dependent Utah is on federal funding and to model economic scenarios to help the state plan for potential cuts, with $300,000 appropriated from the Income Tax Fund to support that work.
