Senate approves record $3.3B General Fund budget, supplemental bill

The Alabama Senate on Thursday approved a record $3.3 billion 2025 General Fund budget and a current year supplemental spending plan of $214 million.

The 2025 budget, a more than $300 million increase over the current year, represents increases for almost all the non-education state agencies in it.

State employees will receive a 2% raise, as well. The bills now move to the House.
