Provides for emergency appropriation for the period April 1, 2026 through April 7, 2026
This bill provides emergency funding to keep state government operations running from April 1 through April 7, 2026, while waiting for the regular state budget to be passed. It allocates approximately $248 million to pay state employee salaries and another $10 million for non-personal service expenses like supplies and contracts. The legislation also includes $6.4 million for federal food and nutrition programs and $610 million for medical assistance, with specific spending limits on Medicaid expenditures. These funds are intended to cover essential government functions during a brief period when the state lacks a fully enacted budget for the new fiscal year.
