§ 100500 State Infrastructure Bond Authorization
This law lets California sell up to $2.5 billion in bonds (not counting any refunding bonds) to fund higher‑education building projects, and the state promises to pay back the money with interest.
A state university needs $200 million to build a new science lab.
The state can issue $200 million of bonds under this law to raise the cash, and then promise to pay back the principal and interest using the state's full credit.
Bonds Issued = min( $2,500,000,000 – Refund‑Bond Amount, Amount Needed )
University needs $200 million and no refunding bonds have been issued yet.
Result: Bonds Issued = min($2,500,000,000, $200,000,000) = $200,000,000
