Introduced Final Reading · 3 edits
MINOR
The bill was amended to significantly increase funding for Legislative Bill 803, raising the total appropriation from approximately $346,557 to over $1.3 million across two fiscal years. Additionally, the bill was restructured to include two distinct funding sections: one for Program 102 and a new Section 2 for Program 112, both aimed at the Department of Revenue. A critical policy change was added in the new Section 2, which explicitly prohibits the use of these specific funds for paying state employee salaries or per diems, likely to ensure the money is used strictly for operational expenses or contracts rather than direct personnel costs.
Scope change
The scope of funding was expanded to include a new Program 112 alongside the existing Program 102, and the total budget authority was substantially increased.
FISCAL

Total appropriated funds were increased from roughly $346,557 to approximately $1.3 million, with specific amounts raised for both FY2026-27 and FY2027-28.

A new funding allocation for Program 112 was inserted, directing approximately $195,094 to the Department of Revenue.

REQUIREMENT

A new restriction was added prohibiting the use of funds from the new Section 2 for any state employee salaries or per diems.
