The chart below shows how much money the biennial Operating budget provide for the different functional areas of government in Washington. You may choose different area and funds to suit your data needs.

The Office of Financial Management (OFM) provides a comparison of how much Washington governments spend and the personal income of its citizens. For details, please see Washington state and local government expenditures per $1,000 personal income, which will open in a new window on OFM's website.

OFM determines which bills require a 10-year cost analysis and public notifications in compliance with RCW 43.135.031. The bills listed below are ones that meet the necessary criteria AND were passed the Legislature during the 2023 session.

To view details about the bills, follow the link to the Legislature Bill Page for that bill, which will open the Legislature bill page containing its history and voting records. To view the cost analysis for the bills, follow the link to the Cost Analysis for that bill, which will open an OFM page containing the notification of the bill and the 10-year cost analysis.

To view analyses for all tax or fee bills subject to RCW 43.135.031, including ones not passed by the Legislature, there are three options:

1. Subscribe to email notifications for tax and fee proposals by going to the OFM Tax & Fee Proposal (I-960) page, or the GOV/OFM listserv subscriber page, entering your email address in the field provided under the Email Updates heading, and clicking "Submit." You may then select from a list of subscription topics. Check the “Tax and Fee Proposals” box under the Office of Financial Management section, and click "Submit" one more time. Please note that this subscription option will mean that you receive an email for every version of every bill that raises taxes or fees each time the bill is revised.
