èßäapp

Budget

• The Conference Committee Report was third read and finally passed by both House and Senate on Friday. The conference committee took the Senate position for èßäappSystem’s core, restoring the 10% cut originally proposed by the House from the federal stabilization fund. Additionally, they restored the $10M to the Precision Health Medicine line for NextGen.
• While this is optimistic, the restored funding will only be available if the state is able to pull down additional federal funding in the next couple months.
• The èßäapp S&T Project Lead The Way funding for $60,628 and the UMSL Biotech funding for $133,378 were also restored.
