SB 191 Arkansas Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT FOR THE SECRETARY OF STATE REAPPROPRIATION.

This bill reallocates unused funds from previous appropriations to cover specific Capitol building projects for the Secretary of State. It directs $15 million for statewide voting machine replacement, $6.5 million for HVAC upgrades, $2.5 million for roof repairs, and other sums for Capitol grounds maintenance, plumbing, electrical work, and digital preservation. The funds come from existing balances in prior bills (Act 106 of 2024 and Act 24 of 2024), not new taxes or spending. It affects the Secretary of State's office and its management of Capitol facilities, with no new policy changes. The bill is procedural, focusing solely on moving existing funds to complete planned projects.
