About Us

FFIS is a subscription service jointly created by the National Governors Association and the National Conference of State Legislatures. Our primary mission is to track and report on the fiscal impact of federal budget and policy decisions on state budgets and programs. This information is maintained in a database of more than 200 federal grant-in-aid programs and is disseminated to subscribers through a regular series of reports and briefs.

The federal budget provides about 30% of state revenue, making it the largest single source of funds for many states. FFIS helps states to manage their federal funds by providing timely analysis of the impact of federal actions on states.

FFIS staff is also available to all subscibers.
