An Act making appropriations from the Professional Licensure Augmentation Account and from restricted revenue accounts within the General Fund to the Department of State for use by the Bureau of Professional and Occupational Affairs in support of the professional licensure boards assigned thereto.

SB 283 allocates $73 million from the Professional Licensure Augmentation Account and specific funds to Pennsylvania's professional licensing boards for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. It provides operational funding for the State Boards of Medicine, Osteopathic Medicine, Podiatry, and the State Athletic Commission, using designated state revenue accounts. The appropriations are strictly for the boards' operations and must be accounted for separately, not as general government funds. This is a routine budget measure, not a policy change.
