Authorizes withholding of funds due to federal government if federal government withholds funds from State in contravention of a court decision.

Summary

The bill forces every state agency to report any federal money the United States is refusing to pay after a court order, and also to list what the state owes the federal government. The State Treasurer compiles these reports and sends them to the Governor and Legislature, and the Governor can direct the Treasury to withhold up to the amount owed. Any withheld funds are held in reserve and move to the General Fund at the end of the fiscal year.
