This summary briefly discusses the bien- nial budget processes of Ohio, Wisconsin, and Florida. It is based on data and interviews with executive and legislative offi- cials in the three States. Selected officials in each State have reviewed the portions of the summary that pertain to them. While budgeting may often be tailored to the unique needs and characteristics of a State, we learned from visiting Ohio, Wisconsin, and Florida that certain aspects of their budget pro- cesses are relevant and adaptable to a Federal biennial cycle.
