The Illinois state budget is implemented annually for a fiscal term that runs from July 1 to June 30 of the following year.[1] The state budget is drafted by the governor.[2] The governor prepares suggestions for the amount of funds that will be appropriated to each department, provides estimates of the incoming revenue that will be derived from sources other than taxation and estimates the amount of revenue that must be raised through taxes.[2]
