6 月 30 日星期二,会议委员会发布了 2027 财年 (FY27) 的预算(Bill H. 5555)。马萨诸塞州众议院和参议院通过了折衷预算,并于 7 月 1 日星期三将其发送给希利州长。

7 月 9 日星期四,希利州长签署了预算。

In addition to the FY27 state budget, the Governor has also recently signed two other state budgets – the FY26 Fair Share Supplemental Budget on (Bill H.5470) on June 12 and a $7.7 billion interim FY27 budget (Bill H. 5534) on June 30. The interim budget is a temporary budget, also called a one-twelfth budget, which is used to fund the state until the 27 财年预算已最终确定。

Between the FY26 Fair Share Supplemental Budget and the FY27 state budget, the state has made significant investments for early education and care in Massachusetts.

“We appreciate Governor Healey, Speaker Mariano, and Senate President Spilka’s commitment to early education and care in the FY27 budget.

In a challenging fiscal year, where difficult decisions needed to be made, we are grateful that the final budget maintains important investments that support children, families, early educators, and programs across the Commonwealth. We look forward to continuing to work with state leaders and advocates to build a stronger and more sustainable early education and care system.”
