Cost Increases:
• Must pay $1.345M this year for Benefit/Health Care Cost increases even though there was not a general salary increase
• For every 1% increase in salaries it costs the college approximately $600,000
![Page 8: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Note:
• The actual Ag Research and Ag Extension lines in the Pennsylvania enacted budget contain zeros, as the entire appropriation, except for the Penn College line, is lumped into a new “General Support” line
• In the appropriations bill the lines are absent altogether
• We have assurances from Old Main that the lines will be distributed as historically proportioned
![Page 9: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Other State lines of interest:
• PDA research line started at $1 million, down from $1.64• Governor announced last week this line is reduced to zero
• Animal Health Commission funding started flat at $5.15 million• Governor announced last week this line is reduced by $249,000
• These additional cuts equate to college cut of around $250,000
![Page 10: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Penn State is a world-class research institution that is not only an economic engine for the Commonwealth, but generates and distributes science-based solutions for businesses and agencies that help them remain competitive and create jobs
• College plays a unique role in serving Pennsylvania agriculture as the sole land-grant institution in the state
Budget Talking Points:
![Page 11: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• 150 year old partnership between the federal government, state government, county government, and Penn State
• The Agricultural Research and Agricultural Extension line items in the Penn State appropriations bill constitute Pennsylvania’s commitment to this partnership
![Page 12: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• These appropriated dollars are the foundation to maintain research and extension services provided to the Commonwealth in each of the 67 counties
• These state services are not funded through tuition dollars, are unique to Penn State, and should be treated as such
![Page 13: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
These funds are an investment in Pennsylvania that have a proven track record of paying huge dividends to the state
They are also used to leverage federal competitive grant funding, enhancing Pennsylvania’s economy and providing federal research funds to focus on Pennsylvania priorities
![Page 14: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Agriculture is a major economic sector in Pennsylvania that has tremendous growth potential
• 2007 Pennsylvania Census of Ag shows a 9% growth farm numbers and 36% growth in market value of production ($5.8 Billion) from 2002 survey (does not include forest products – additional $5.5 billion)
• During economic crisis, small businesses - the bulk of agriculture in Pennsylvania - need help more than ever. State government needs to be investing in programs that help maintain and create jobs
![Page 15: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Issue to be aware of:
• Many state legislators mistakenly believe that Ag Research and Ag Extension appropriation lines are in the PDA budget, commonly referred to as the “Ag Budget”
• These funding lines are in the Non-preferred Penn State Appropriation Bill
![Page 16: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Sponsored by PSAC and PCCEA• Intended to be a visible show of support• Focused on constituents/advocates• Budget briefing to ensure a clear, consistent message• All legislators are visited• Communicate relevance in their district• Purpose is to make them care
College Capitol Day: March 9, 2010
CEDs are asked to identify 3 advocates from their county to attend Capitol Day
![Page 17: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Advocates will be assigned to groups by their legislative requests
• CR office will schedule appointments - not advocates or CEDs
• Every effort is made to match advocates to their own legislators
• Not every advocate will get to see all of their requested legislators
• Advocates from the same county may be placed in different groups
• Advocates may be asked to visit other than the own legislators
Key Points to communicate to advocates:
![Page 18: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Size of group• Number of advocates attending from each district• Date of Registration• Legislator’s schedule• Number of visits possible in the day
Limiting Factors in Setting up Appointments:
![Page 19: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Will have one-pager with clear, concise message• More important they communicate importance of programs• Will have mission one-pagers with impacts
Budget Briefing
![Page 20: CED Budget And Capitol Day Presentation 2010](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546af08eaf795979438b6e13/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Needs to be strategic• Welcome to attend the briefing and lunch• Will not participate in legislative visits• Possibly host ice cream social • Volunteer as scoopers at ice cream social
Youth Participation

Budget Message Challenges for Capitol Day:
• Do not have separate lines to lobby in bill
• Penn State Budget will likely be flat due to ARRA funding for year three
• State revenue shortfall
• Will not have budget message until after the Governor presents his budget and budget hearings are over
