HB 238 appropriates funds from Alabama's Education Trust Fund for public education support, maintenance, and development during fiscal year 2027 (ending September 30, 2027). It allocates specific amounts for programs like charter school startup grants ($31.5 million), arts education ($9.6 million), and school infrastructure debt service, with funding sources specified as Education Trust Fund contributions and other federal/local funds. The bill directs these funds to state education programs under existing budget laws, requiring accountability for efficient fund use. It does not create new programs but authorizes spending for current educational operations and capital projects.
SB 146 is Alabama's 2027 state budget bill, authorizing funding for all state government operations. It allocates specific amounts from the State General Fund and other sources to cover ordinary expenses for executive agencies (like departments and offices), the legislative branch (including the Legislature and courts), judicial functions, debt payments, and infrastructure projects. The bill specifies exact funding levels for each agency and program, such as $19.7 million for the Examiners of Public Accounts and $27.9 million for the Legislature’s operations, for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2027. As a standard appropriations measure, it does not create new policies but provides the financial framework for existing government functions.
SB 226 allocates supplemental funding for Alabama's fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, primarily providing $387.5 million from the Public Road and Bridge Fund and $200 million from the Rebuild Alabama Fund to the Alabama Department of Transportation for highway and bridge projects. It also allocates $50 million for energy infrastructure development through the Strategic Energy Infrastructure Development Fund and $11 million to the Unified Judicial System for court operations. Additional funds support Medicaid, the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, and geological surveys. The bill amends the main transportation appropriation to include the Alabama Highway Authority in debt service payments for highway bonds.
