Provision allows Texas lawmakers to tap into unspent budget money

Lawmakers have for years used a widely overlooked provision that lets them carry over unspent funds from one budget cycle to another, even though almost all other departments must return unused money to the state. It means they have millions of leftover dollars that don't always appear in the new appropriations bill passed each session, rankling advocates of state programs that have been squeezed because of mandatory spending cuts.
