Welcome to the House Fiscal Agency

The House Fiscal Agency is a nonpartisan agency within the Michigan House of Representatives. Agency personnel provide confidential, nonpartisan assistance to the House Appropriations Committee and all other members of the House on legislative fiscal matters.

Fiscal Analysts assist legislators with developing the state budget; review and prepare budget and supplemental appropriations bills and certain transfer requests; provide fiscal impact statements on proposed legislation; monitor, research, and analyze fiscal issues; and prepare reports and documents to assist legislative deliberations. Economists analyze legislation related to tax and lottery issues, monitor state revenue, track state and national economic conditions, and prepare reports on revenue and other economic issues. Legislative Analysts prepare nonpartisan summaries and analyses of bills throughout the legislative process. The Agency Director, by statute, is one of three state officials charged with forecasting state revenues at Consensus Revenue Estimating Conferences.
