This concurrent resolution encourages North Dakota's State Treasurer and State Investment Board to consider allocating portions of three specific state funds - the general fund, budget stabilization fund, and legacy fund - toward investments in digital assets (like cryptocurrencies) and precious metals. It cites inflation concerns and the need for investment diversification to protect the state's financial resources. The resolution is non-binding and serves only as a recommendation to the Treasurer and Board, not a mandate requiring specific investment actions. It does not alter existing investment rules or create new state obligations.
Relating to a motor vehicle excise tax exemption for abandoned motor vehicles; and to amend and reenact subsection 2 of section 23.1‑15‑07 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to excise tax on a motor vehicle taken into the custody of a commercial towing service.
HB 1268 would require human service zones in North Dakota to mandate drug testing for parents whose drug use contributed to a child's out-of-home placement (e.g., foster care). Parents would need to pass a test before resuming unsupervised visits with their child, with additional testing allowed for safety planning. The bill excludes marijuana from this requirement and allocates $100,000 from the general fund for testing costs during the 2025-2027 biennium. This bill failed to pass in the legislature (6-39 vote) and remains a proposed measure, not current law.
