FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



Officials from the Department of Conservation assume the proposal would have no fiscal impact on their agency.



Officials from the Department of Transportation (MoDOT) assume the intent of this proposal is to create a new state holiday in which no compensatory time can be earned. Under this assumption, MoDOT assumes no fiscal impact.



Officials from the Office of Administration - Division of Personnel assume no fiscal impact as the proposal does not appear to provide state employees with a paid holiday.



Oversight assumes funds appropriated for purposes set out in this proposal would become budget decision items and therefore no fiscal impact is reflected.

DESCRIPTION



This proposal designates June 19 of each year "Emancipation Day." This day is also referred to as "Juneteenth," which commemorates June 19, 1865, which was the day the last slaves, in Galveston, Texas, were informed of their freedom.



On this day, Missourians, government offices, and all organizations are asked to devote part of the day to remembering the Emancipation Proclamation by celebrating "Juneteenth" and reaffirming their commitment to achieving equal justice and opportunity.



This proposal also establishes the "Missouri Juneteenth Heritage and Jazz Festival and Memorial." Any funds appropriated by the general assembly for this event shall be used to establish a state-wide festival and monument to commemorate the struggles and hardships endured by those who had been enslaved.



This proposal is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
