SB 132 Arkansas Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT TO MAKE AN APPROPRIATION FOR THE PAYMENT OF APPROVED CLAIMS.

SB 132 (Act 535) is a procedural budget amendment that updates how state funds are designated for paying approved claims. It replaces the reference to the "Miscellaneous Agencies Fund Account" with a specific "cash fund deposited in the State Treasury as determined by the Chief Fiscal Officer." This change affects state agencies processing claims by clarifying the fund source for payments, without creating new policies or altering eligibility. The bill was passed quickly with an emergency clause and became law on April 10, 2025.
